Grind the coriander, green chillies, ginger,
garlic and tomatoes with little water and keep it aside.
Heat oil+ghee in a heavy bottomed
vessel/pressure cooker, add cinnamon sticks, cloves, fennel seeds, cumin seeds,
bay leaves, cardamom and saute for about 30-40 seconds or wait until nice aroma
fills the room.
Add the broken cashew nuts and fry until golden brown color.
Now add the sliced onions, ¼ tsp of salt and
saute well until it changes to light golden brown color.
Now measure the amount of coriander + tomato
+ green Chilli paste and add it to the pressure cooker. [For 2 cups of rice you
will need 3 cups of water, if you have 1 cup of coriander paste then add 2 more cup of water]. Add required water, according to the amount of coriander
paste.
Add red chilli powder, turmeric powder to the cooker.
Add the required amount of salt, lemon juice and mix everything
really well.
Now let the whole mixture come to rolling
boil.
Add the washed and soaked rice to the
pressure cooker and give a give stir.
Once it comes to rolling boil again, close
the lid and cook on medium flame for about 12-14 minutes or for one whistle and
switch off the stove. Open the lid and stir gently and fluff up the rice.
