INGREDIENTS

3 tb Vegetable oil
2 md Onions; thinly sliced
1 1/2 ts Black peppercorns; coarsely crushed
1/8 ts Turmeric
3 1/4 c Water
2 c Basmati rice; rinsed and drained
1 1/4 ts Salt
1 tb Unsalted butter
1/3 c Cashews; broken, raw
1 c Frozen peas

INSTRUCTIONS

In a 4-quart enameled cast-iron casserole, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil.
Add 1 of the onions and cook over moderately high heat, stirring
occasionally, until softened but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add the
peppercorns and turmeric and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1
minute. Add the water, rice and salt and stir well. Bring to a boil, then
cover tightly, reduce the hat ot low and cook for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt the butter in the remaining 1
tablespoon of oil. Add the cashews to the skillet and cook, stirring
constantly, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon,
transfer the cashews to paper towels, leaving as much oil behind as
possible. Add the remaining onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring
constantly, until it turns deep brown, about 8 minutes. Add the browned
onion to the cashews.
When the rice is cooked, stir in the frozen peas. Cover until the peas have
warmed through, about 3 minutes. Turn the rice into a bowl and garnish with
the onion and cashews. Serve immediately.
