Caramelise one medium to large onion in 4tbs oil

Once brown, add half a cup water and cover to let the juices come out. After 5 minutes add one large tomato, one cinnamon stick, 6-8 pepper pods, 1tsp ginger and garlic paste. Salt and pepper according to taste. I used 2tsp salt and half tsp pepper. This dish is prepared to serve 4-6 persons. You can reduce or increase quantity accordingly.

Let it stir for 5 minutes, add 1 1/2 cup green peas and 4 cups of water. Bring it to boil

Add 2 cups of pre soaked rice( 60 minutes) and cook on high flame (without the lid on )till the water dries.

Once the water is dried up, cook it for 10 minutes on extremely low flame with the lid on. Tadaa! Fluffy and yummy rice is ready to serve. Its a complete meal on its on and can be paired with a curry or veggie dish. A light meal for summer
A useful tip: Always used double the amount of water to rice. For two cups rice I used 4 cups water.
