Ingredients

  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 -inch piece fresh ginger, peeled, halved, and smashed
  • 6 green cardamom pods
  • Pinch kosher salt

Method

  • Rinse the rice to get rid of excess starch.
  • Put it into a heavy bottomed pot with a tight fitting lid.
  • Add the water, ginger, cardamom, and salt and give it a good stir.
  • Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook gently for about 15 minutes.
  • You will see holes poking through the rice and most of the water should be absorbed.
  • Let the rice stand off the heat, covered, for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the ginger and discard, fluff the rice and serve.
