Recipe - Indian Rice

1 cup Basmati rice
2 cup Water
2 tablespoon Butter
3 Cardamom pods
1 (up to)
2 Slivers of cinnamon (1
normal sized piece should
do 4 batches of rice)
1 pn Saffron
Salt

I tried to replicate the rice that is served in a nearby Indian restaurant
and believe this to be very close. Anyway, it's good! How can you go
wrong with basmati?

Saute the rice in the butter for a couple of minutes. Add the water and
spices and bring to a boil, cover and simmer ~15 minutes. I sometimes add
a handful of frozen English peas, too.
