👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Heat oil or ghee in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the whole spices (cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, cloves, bay leaf) and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
2
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 7-10 minutes.
3
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
4
Add the diced tomatoes and cook until they soften and break down, about 5 minutes. Stir in the Kabsah spice blend, salt, and black pepper.
5
Add the rinsed and drained basmati rice to the pot. Stir well to coat the rice with the spices and aromatics. Toast the rice for 1-2 minutes.
6
Pour in the lamb broth or water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
7
Once cooked, let the rice rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes. Fluff the rice gently with a fork.
8
Serve the Kabsah rice hot, garnished with optional raisins and toasted nuts. This rice is typically served as a side to cooked lamb or chicken dishes.
