This is very easy recipe, with basmati rice and green peas. It is very mild and fragrant, and great as a side dish, or for those picky kids who don't like their peas. The word 'matar' means green peas in Urdu.

'I got this recipe from the mother of one of my college roommates many years ago and filed it away,' writes Suzy Mercker of Lawrenceville, Georgia. 'I found it one night by accident and made it for dinner. Now it's a staple that I often serve with chicken, beef, pork...or even fish.'

White rice is sauteed in butter and then simmered with saffron infused water. The secret of obtaining fluffy rice is in having the rice hot enough that when the boiling water is added it does not stop boiling.
