Hi Theresa,

We have a video for Cumin Flavored Basmati Rice (Jeera Rice). Please bear in mind that it is an old video so the quality may not be that great. Here it is: http://showmethecurry.com/rice-dishes/jeera-rice.html

I have recently been trying to make naan. Watched your video today and it really cleared up some things for me. I have made quite a lot of breads in the past, but flatbreads such as naan handle differently. Thanks for the video and recipe I can’t wait to try it out.

Also, you cleared up basmati rice for me. I only rinsed it not soaked. Do you have a recipe for whole cumin seeds with the rice?

Hi Karry,

Believe it or not, but Basmati rice does actually have a wonderful aroma when cooked. The “special” thing about it is its characteristic “unsticky” quality which makes it perfect for pulaos and biryanis.

What is so special about basmati rice ? i’ve tried it, and it doesnt really feel different from any ordinary long grain rice. Except at 4 times the price.
At least jasmin rice actually has incredible aroma, even uncooked. Compared to jasmin, basmati seemed quite bland to me.
