Steps:
- Place rice into a bowl with enough water to cover. Set aside to soak for 20 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a large pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, cloves, and cumin seed. Cook and stir for about a minute, then add the onion to the pot. Saute the onion until a rich golden brown, about 10 minutes. Drain the water from the rice, and stir into the pot. Cook and stir the rice for a few minutes, until lightly toasted. Add salt and water to the pot, and bring to a boil. Cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until all of the water has been absorbed. Let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork before serving.

Steps:
- Fry the onions in the sunflower oil in a large frying pan for 10-12 minutes until golden.
- Fill a roomy saucepan with water, bring to the boil and tip in a heaped teaspoon of salt - the water will bubble furiously. Add turmeric and the cinnamon stick to the water. Pour in the rice, stir once and return to the boil, then turn the heat down a little so that the water is boiling steadily, but not vigorously. Boil uncovered, without stirring (this makes for sticky rice) for 10 minutes. Lift some out with a slotted spoon and nibble a grain or two. If they're too crunchy, cook for another minute and taste again. They should be tender but with a little bite. Drain the rice into a large sieve and rinse by pouring over a kettle of very hot water
- Stir the crushed seeds of the cardamom pods into the onions with the cumin seeds and fry briefly.
- Toss in a large handful of sultanas and roasted cashew nuts, then the hot drained rice. This is great with curry and will also give an exotic edge to grilled meat or fish.
Tips:
- Use high-quality rice. The type of rice you use will greatly affect the taste and texture of your rice treats. Look for a medium-grain rice that is known for its stickiness, such as sushi rice or Arborio rice.
- Rinse the rice thoroughly. This will remove any excess starch and help the rice to cook evenly.
- Toast the rice before cooking. This will help to bring out the nutty flavor of the rice and give it a slightly crispy texture.
- Use a flavorful cooking liquid. The cooking liquid you use will add flavor to the rice treats. Try using a mixture of water and coconut milk, or vegetable broth.
- Add spices and other flavorings to the rice. This is a great way to customize the flavor of your rice treats. Try adding cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, or cardamom.
- Let the rice treats cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
Conclusion:
Indian spiced rice treats are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or dessert. They are perfect for any occasion, and they can be customized to your own taste. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a truly unique and flavorful treat that everyone will love.
