My favourite basmati rice!!! I couldn't survive without it! I'm originally from Afghanistan 🇦🇫, and I would never stop eating it!! We usually add whole cumin and ground cardamom seeds for aroma! You will love it! 😍😍😍

Too complicated. If you put in the right amount of water you can add the salt and oil all together. Set it and forget it.
