Steps to make Tasty saffron basmati rice with life changing tips and tricks:
- The below steps will give you nice long grain rice. Not too sticky, not too dry. Just like you want it to be 👌🏻. This version is with saffron but you can make yours with whatever spices and flavors you love. Just follow these techniques when you want to cook basmati rice.
- Rinse the rice very well until the water is clear and you can see the rice through. Soak it for at least 30 minutes up to 1 hour with a teaspoon of salt.
- Add the saffron in a bowl with 2 or 3 ice cubes. This way you will get the best flavor out of it.
- 📌📌 Good quality saffron has an end like in the picture and its water should be yellowish not orange
- In a pot, put the ghee with the oil and start frying the onion first for 2 to 3 minutes on high heat then add the garlic and fry until soft
- The rice should be ready to cook now. See how it’s so white.
- ⚠️ ❌ rinse the rice from salty water BUT DO NOT MIX or touch it. You don’t want to break the grains 💔
- Add the rice to the pot. And again don’t mix it. Just fold it over gently for a few seconds to mix it with the onion
- Add the saffron water with the saffron bits
- Add BOILING WATER to the rice. This will help the grains to become longer and cook quicker. Cover the rice so that the water is almost 1 inch above it.
- ⚠️ Keep the rice on high heat and do not cover it
- Once the water has almost evaporated and you can see water bubbling through the holes, cover the pot and and turn to low heat and let it cook for almost 10 more minutes
- The rice should be cooked now but the grains on the surface might be a little bit drier because they didn’t get as much water as the rest of the rice. Mix the top soooo gently with a fork and cover with the lid for 5 more minutes.
- See how long the grain has become!
- Now it’s ready to serve 🍽 I made mine with beef cubes on top and some fried nuts
