Heat the cooking oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat and sauté the onions and garlic until golden brown.





Add the rice and spices to the pot, stirring gently to coat the grains in the oil and aromatics.





Pour in the hot water, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a gentle simmer.



Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and cook on low heat until the rice is tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.
