Notes
Cook the rice as I have told in the recipe and soaking is also important.
Adding cream gives a special taste and creaminess.
I have not added walnut if you have you can add.
Fruits like pineapple gives extra taste and texture you can very well add it.
Nice quality basmati rice gives a nice flavour to this dish.
