Steps:
- CURRY: Heat a large stew pot over moderate heat and add the canola oil after the pot is hot. When the oil shimmers, add mustard seeds. When the mustard seeds pop, add cumin, red chili and curry leaves. Cook for 1 minute, then add ginger and turmeric and cook for another 20 seconds. Add onion and green chilies and saute for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2 more minutes. In a large bowl, whisk the yogurt and water together. Turn the heat to low. Let the pan cool down for about 5 minutes. Add the yogurt and water to the pot along with the potatoes. Simmer for 20 minutes stirring constantly. Be sure the heat is low or the yogurt will curdle. Season with salt and a pinch of sugar. RICE Rinse the rice 3-4 times with water. Drain and set aside. In a deep pan (with a lid), heat the butter over medium heat. Add the green cardamom pods, cloves, cinnamon stick and the black cardamom seeds. Cook for about 1 or 2 minutes. Add the raisins, almonds and salt. Stir for another minute. Add the rice and saute for about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and the saffron threads. Mix well. Add 2 cups of water and cook uncovered until the water comes to a boil. Cover tightly, and reduce heat. Cook the rice for another 8 to 12 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Let sit covered about 5 to 6 minutes. Serve hot. Fluff with a fork before serving.
