  1. Wash rise in running water till water appears clear. Soak the rice for 40-45 mins before cooking.
  2. Heat water in a large vessel, the water measurement should be double the rice.

  4. When the rice starts cooking add 1 tsp of ghee and saffron and cook the rice till 90% done.
  5. Turn off the gas and pass the rice through a colander to drain water. Collect the rice and spread on a wide tray so that they don’t stick to each other.
