Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables

  • Steam the potatoes, French beans, carrots, and peas for about 5 minutes until slightly tender. Set aside to cool.

Make the Spice Paste

  • In a bowl, combine the cooled vegetables with the yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cilantro, and mint. Mix thoroughly.

Sauté the Spices

  • In a thick-bottomed pan or handi, heat the desi ghee over medium heat. Add the cloves, cinnamon, and black cardamom. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Combine and Simmer

  • Carefully add the vegetable and spice mixture to the pan. Stir well to combine. Cook on low heat for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Add the cooked basmati rice, stirring gently to coat in the spiced vegetables and ghee.

Finishing Touches

  • Pour in the milk and stir gently. Reduce heat to low, cover the pan tightly, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through and the flavors have fully infused.

Serve and Garnish

  • Serve hot, garnished generously with fried onions and fried cashews.
