A delightful and aromatic rice dish featuring basmati rice, toasted spices, and vibrant green peas, perfect for any meal.
Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Rinsing removes excess starch, preventing the rice from becoming sticky.
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
Using a lid helps the water boil faster.
Add the rinsed rice and a pinch of salt to the boiling water, stir, and cover.
Keep the heat low to prevent the rice from sticking to the pan.
In a heavy skillet, toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, and turmeric over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Stir constantly to avoid burning the spices.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until translucent.
Cook the onion on medium heat to bring out its sweetness.
Mix the toasted spices and sautéed onion into the cooked rice.
Fluff the rice gently to avoid breaking the grains.
Stir in the green peas and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
If using frozen peas, thaw them beforehand for even cooking.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the rice and serve warm.
Lemon juice adds a bright and tangy flavor to the dish.
