differ)
* Salt to taste

Method:
- * Wash the rice properly 2-3 times. Drain the water and keep aside.
- * In a rice pot, heat the ghee (I don’t usually cook my rice in pressure cooker, but you can do that too).

- * In the remaining ghee, add the cumin seeds, bay leaf, cardamom and cinnamon, let them crackle.
- * Then add in the mix vegetables and sauté for about 3-4 minutes. (I have added some grated carrots too).
