đĄ Proffstips
- âThe key to good Mandi rice is the quality of the spices. Use freshly ground spices if possible.
- âIf you don't have dried lime, you can omit it or use a squeeze of fresh lime juice at the end.
- âFor a smoky flavor, you can place a piece of charcoal heated in a flame over the cooked rice, drizzle a little oil on it, and cover the pot for a few minutes.
