Wordeful rice! Full of aroma and so tasty. I didn't add the potato cause I didn't have any at the time and used olive oil instead of butter. I love it! Made it as a side dish to a chicken kiev (light with yogurt) so it was a good combination. Thanks for posting, Next time I'll defenatly add the potatoes.

I'm a big fan of Indian cuisine, so this pressed all the right buttons for me! The finished dish looks very pretty as the turmeric makes it go the most beautiful colour. I felt the cumin seeds got a bit 'lost' (but that may be because they're one of my favourite ingredients) so I shall add more next time.
