Steps:
- Wash the basmati rice a few times, and then soak it in enough water so that the rice is completely soaked and has an inch of extra water on top. Soak the rice for 30 minutes.
- When you are ready to cook, drain all the water from the rice and set the rice aside.
- Heat ghee in a pot and add the whole spices and cumin seeds to it. Once the cumin seeds start spluttering, add the chopped green chilli and drained rice to it.
- Toast the rice in the pan for two minutes on a medium flame. This helps add more flavour to the rice, and prevents it from sticking and becoming gluggy
- Add two cups water and salt to the rice and mix well. Bring the rice to a quick boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for approximately six minutes, till all the water has evaporated and the rice is cooked through.
- Turn off the flame and let the rice rest for 5 more minutes. Top with chopped coriander and serve hot.

Steps:
- Rinse basmati rice till the water runs clear of starch. Soak the rice for 30 mins and then drain all the water. Keep aside.
- Heat 4 cups water till it comes to a boil. Add all the whole spices. Add rice and salt. Simmer the rice on a low flame uncovered.
- The rice grains should be cooked till tender and yet separate. Drain the water and keep the cooked rice aside.
- If you want you can rinse also the rice with water at room temperature. This stops the cooking of the rice and keeps the grains separate.
- Heat oil in a small pan. Add cumin/jeera.
- Let them crackle. They have to be fried well otherwise you will taste uncooked cumin in the rice.
- Add the green chilies. Stir for a few seconds. No need to brown the chilies.
- Add the tempering to the hot or warm rice.
- With a fork, gently mix the tempering with the rice grains. Even if some rice grains break, its alright. Do gently taking care so as not to break the rice grains.
- Add coriander and gently mix or garnish the rice with coriander at the time of serving.
- Serve jeera rice hot or warm with a dal or vegetable/paneer curry of your choice.

TOTALLY EASY TOTALLY YUMMY JEERA RICE AND DAAL FRY
Again, this is a recipe from my "cooking guru" and best friend Rupali. Jeera means cumin, so you can guess what the dominant flavor of the rice is. the Daal fry is made with Toor Daal which is a yellow lentil with a mild flavor. These two dishes are meant to go together and they are so absolutely delicious and so easy to make that I did it right on my first try.

Steps:
- Wash toor daal in 4 changes of water, then set to cook. put enough water in the toor daal to be about 1 1/2 inches above the daal. If you don't have a pressure cooker, it should take somewhere around 45 minutes for the daal to become soft.
- Set the rice to cook at the same time. The rice will cook a little faster and it will be perfect timing for you to add the spices to the rice and have it all prepared as the daal is becoming ready to have the spices added to it.
- The ratio of water to rice is two to one. add the salt to the water before cooking as it will be difficult to mix in later. the water should taste nice and salty.
- When the rice is almost done, take half of the ghee or butter in a large sauté pan.
- Add the cumin seeds, cilantro leaves and chopped green chillies.
- Sauté for about 3 minutes on med heat, then add the cooked rice and mix.
- Add the rest of the ghee or butter to the rice and mix until consistent.
- Set aside and cover to keep warm.
- Wash out the sauté pan and begin the spices for the daal by adding the oil, cumin, finely chopped onion and green chillies. Sauté until the onions are transparent.
- Add diced tomatoes and sauté for 2 more minutes.
- Check the daal to make sure it is soft, then mash with a potato masher until you have a porridge-like consistency. If you need to retrieve water from the pan, then do it beforehand. Just remember, you can always put the water back in if there isn't enough, but you can't take it out once the lentils are mashed.
- After the daal is mashed add the sauté mixture.
- Add red chili powder for more heat if necessary.
- Add garam masala, salt and sugar. stir over heat for 2 minute and it is ready.
- Serve over jeera rice with papad and mango pickle.

Steps:
- Wash rice a few times until water runs clear.
- Then soak it in lot of water for at least 30 mins. Drain it completely.
- Heat ghee or oil in a pressure cooker or a pot.
- Saute bay leaf, cloves, cinnamon, cardamoms and mace until they begin to sizzle.
- Fry jeera on a low flame until a nice aroma comes out. Add green chilli.
- Transfer drained rice to the pot or cooker and fry for 2 to 3 mins. Do not stir vigorously as the rice grains will break.
- This frying step helps to bring out the aroma of the rice.
- Pour water and add salt. Stir well and taste the water. It must be slightly salty. Bring water to a boil on a high flame.
- Making Jeera rice in pot - Cover and cook on a low to medium heat until water is absorbed & rice is done. Once done, turn off the heat and let the rice rest in the pot for 15 mins. This helps the grains to expand and become fluffy.
- Making Jeera rice in pressure cooker - Cover the pressure cooker with a lid. Cook on a high heat for 1 whistle. For al dente rice, I release the pressure carefully after 2 mins with the help of a wooden spatula.
- When the pressure releases completely, open the lid and fluff up jeera rice with a fork. Serve with any curry.
- Press saute button and pour ghee to the inner pot of instant pot.
- Add all the spices & saute for 1 min until they turn fragrant. Add the drained rice and chilli. Saute for 2 mins stirring occasionally. Do not stir a lot, rice grains will break.
- Pour 1¾ cups plus 2 tbsps water and add salt. Stir and taste the water. If needed add more salt.
- Secure the lid & position the steam release handle to sealing.
- Press the pressure cook button, set to high pressure. Set the timer for 5 mins.
- When done the instant pot beeps. Let the pressure release naturally for a min and release the rest of the pressure manually with the help of a long spoon (moving the vent from sealing to venting). This will give you al dente cooked jeera rice. (Do this always for a larger batch, even for softer rice, refer notes).
- For softer rice, let the pressure release naturally for 3 to 4 mins.
- Fluff up the Jeera rice with a fork & add some coriander leaves. Serve with dal or your favorite curry.
