This is a very good rice dish! I made it side dish, to go along with Indian Tomato Chicken.

No one in the family liked this, sorry, just not our taste I guess.

Dang! I didn't have the cumin seed but didn't want to use 1T ground either. The spice flavors were very mild so maybe my cinnamon and cardamom need to be replaced. Will make it again but I'll make sure I have all the ingredients as well as fresh spices in my cupboard.

I don't have all the whole spices, so I subbed 1/4t ground cardamom, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/8t ground cloves and 1t cumin. I also prep it all in the skillet then dump into my rice cooker - I hate watching rice on the stove!! Works great, even with brown basmati. ALSO - try subbing some of the liquid for a can of coconut milk!!

i substituted the clove and cardamom with one bay leaf and Turmeric. I didn't have cumin seed so i used cumin powder. I also added two small cloves of Garlic (with a pestle/mortar)

I thought it was quite good. I don't know that I will wash/soak rice next time. I kinda like it sticky. I thought the cinnamon was a little heavy but my dining companion thought both the cinammon and the cardemon were to subtle. Either way, I liked it, I will make it again. I served it on the side with the Ratatouile from this site. Great combo.

The flavour was great but the rice was seriously overcooked, it was way too much water and it turned out mushy. I rinsed the rice several times and soaked it but I think it was too much water after soaking for 20 minutes.
