  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups basmati rice

Preheat the cooking vessel by warming oil over a moderate to high heat level. Introduce rice into the pot and stir it for 2 minutes, allowing it to become slightly toasted.

Add coconut milk, chicken stock, a blend of spices including cumin and coriander, some heat from red pepper flakes, salt, a vibrant hue from turmeric, and the aromatic essence of bay leaves. Introduce raisins and cashew halves into the mixture as well.
