- 6 cardamom pods
- 2 green chilies
- 2 garlic (cloves)
- 1 onion
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/4 caraway seed
- 4 c water
- 2 c basmati rice
- 12 oz tomatoes

cook the meat and sauce to order. Plain yoghurt may be substituted for the tomatoes if preferred. * Experiment with the seasonings. As a guide, ginger and chile powder will increase the heat, coriander will increase the sweetness, and fenugreek and cumin will increase the bitterness. : Difficulty: easy to moderate. : Time: 30 minutes preparation, 2 hours cooking, overnight wait. : Precision: Approximate measurement OK. : Colin Atherton : Logitek Ltd, Bradley Lane, Standish, Wigan, WN6 0XQ, UK : colin@logitek.uucp mcvax!ukc!qtlon!logitek!colin : Copyright (C) 1986 USENET Community Trust
