    Tasty! The spices were subtle and balanced. I only had brown basmati on hand so that's what used. I think I would have preferred white since I believe the cooking time required for the brown effected the texture of the cashews. Good, but I bet better using white rice.Thanks for sharing the recipe.

    Pulau Nepalese Basmati Rice Dish,This is an amazing rice side dish with complex flavors, but simple prep! It has a sweet and salty element to it and the spices will make your kitchen SING! Originally made for a Girl Scout function, but EVERYONE loved it and it is now a family favorite! (Found on a Nepali website.) Also re-heats easily. The golden raisins add the most delicious bit of sweet to the rice!,Tasty! The spices were subtle and balanced. I only had brown basmati on hand so that’s what used.

It fell a little short of amazing in the flavor category.
