Method

1

Rinse basmati rice under cold water until water runs clear; drain well.

2

Slice onion thinly, cut cauliflower into florets, slice carrot thin, and measure peas.

3

Heat ghee in a large pot over medium heat. Add sliced onion and cook until golden, about 5 minutes.

4

Add carrot, cauliflower, and peas to the pot. Stir in garam masala, cumin seeds, crushed cardamom, cinnamon stick, and bay leaf. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5

Add rinsed rice to the pot and stir to coat with ghee, about 2 minutes.

6

Pour vegetable broth over the rice mixture and bring to a boil. Season with salt to taste.

7

Reduce heat to low, cover the pot tightly with a lid, and simmer for 18–20 minutes until all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

8

Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes to allow steam to finish cooking the rice.

9

Fluff rice gently with a fork. Divide among bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and chopped pistachios.
