HOW TO MAKE :

Step 1 / 3

To prepare this lunch recipe, in a medium sized bowl, soak rice in water for 20 minutes. After that, transfer the rice in the rice cooker and add 2 cups of water in it. Turn on the rice cooker and let these cook. Alternatively, you can parboil the rice over medium flame in a deep-bottomed pan with 4 cups of water. Once done drain the excess water and transfer the rice in a bowl.

Step 2 / 3

Now, place a large pan on medium flame and add ghee to it. Once the ghee is hot, add green cardamoms, cinnamon stick, turmeric powder and sugar in it. Fry these well and then switch the flame to low.

Step 3 / 3

Check for the rice now. Once cooked, add rice into the same pan and give it a good stir for minimum five minutes on medium flame. Your sweet rice is now prepared. Transfer it to a separate plate and garnish with cashew nuts and dry rose petals before serving.
