Let is cool further and then fluff it up with a fork. This should be done with a light hand to avoid breaking the long grains of rice.
  • Then in a wok heat oil. Fry the cauliflower till golden remove in a plate. Then cut the washed potatoes into wedges. Fry them till golden. Keep aside. Now it is the peas, fry till the green color intensifies. Add the cashews and raisins. Mix in the garam masala and the red chili powder.
