Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 small potato, peeled and cut into ½ - inch dices
• 1 ½ tablespoons ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons mint leaves, minced
• 1 fresh green chili, minced
• 1¼ cups basmati rice, soaked, rinsed and drained
• 2 ¼ cups water
• Salt to taste
• 3 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted and crushed coarsely
Note: SERVES 6

Method

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and sauté the onion until brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the potato, ginger, half the mint, and the green chili and cook, stir¬ring, about 2 minutes.
Add the rice and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the water and the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover the pan, and cook until the rice is done, 10 to 15 minutes. Do not stir the rice while it cooks. Remove from the heat and let the rice rest for about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle the roasted cumin and the remaining mint leaves on top, and serve.
