Procedure
Step 1: Cook the Broad Beans
Cook the broad beans by adding a little salt and drain the excess water once they are tender.
Step 2: Cook the Rice
Cook the basmati rice until it's soft and fluffy, ensuring it is non-sticky. Add a teaspoon of ghee while cooking to prevent it from sticking together.
Step 3: Fry the Cashews and Badam
In a small pan, fry the cashews and soaked badam pieces in ghee or oil until they turn golden brown. Set them aside.
Step 4: Sauté the Spices
In a pan, heat oil and ghee. Add cloves, bay leaf, cardamom, and cinnamon, and sauté on a low flame until aromatic.
Step 5: Add Onions
Add the sliced onions and sauté them for about a minute until they turn translucent.
Step 6: Add Green Chillies
Add the sliced green chillies to the pan and fry them for half a minute.
Step 7: Add Ginger Garlic Paste
Add the ginger garlic paste and fry for another half minute to release the aroma.
Step 8: Add Mint and Coriander
Add the chopped mint and coriander leaves to the pan, and sauté them for about a quarter of a minute.
Step 9: Add Grated Carrot
Mix in the grated carrot and cook for about a minute on low flame, covering the pan briefly to soften the carrot.
Step 10: Add Garam Masala
Add the garam masala to the mixture and stir thoroughly to distribute the spices.
Step 11: Add Cooked Broad Beans
Now, add the cooked broad beans to the mixture and stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Step 12: Season with Salt
Add the required amount of salt to taste and mix everything together thoroughly.
Step 13: Add Cooked Rice and Herbs
Add the cooked rice to the pan along with chopped coriander leaves. Gently fold everything together to prevent the rice from breaking.
