Nasi Briyani
Instead of plain rice, I decided to cook some nasi briyani. I cooked this dish once before when I was studying in London.


Spices...spices...important to have pandan leave and lemon grass (it used to cost me a bomb to buy in London...)


Fry all the spices minus the pandan leave until it is fragrant.


When the spices are fragrant...add in roughly 3 cups of washed basmati rice into the wok and fry for a few minutes. I added a small chunk of butter to the rice to get that "yellow" effect. Not very healthy but what the heck :)


Place the rice into a rice cooker... "bury" the pand leave in the rice. Add in a half a cup of milk and water. Place the pot back into the cooker and hit the "on" button...


When the rice is done, make sure to stir the rice so that it does not stick get mushy...
