    2. Saut\u00e9 the onion and spices:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Add the chopped onion and green chilies. Saut\u00e9 until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and continue saut\u00e9ing for another minute.<\/span><\/li>\n

    4. Pressure cook or simmer:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Add 2 cups of water and salt to taste. Stir well. Close the pressure cooker and cook on medium heat for two whistles.

    5. Fluff and garnish:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Once cooked, open the pressure cooker carefully (or remove the lid from the pot) and fluff the rice gently with a fork. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
