3- Meethe Chawal:

Here is the meetha chawal recipe that you can cook in your Avias Triply Frypan or Avias Triply Kadai. 
1- Soak the rice for about 30 min. Boil 2 cups of water and add ½ tsp turmeric into it. Drain the soaked rice and carefully pour into the boiling water and cook the rice over medium heat. Once the rice is 80% cooked, drain the rice and keep aside on a chani (strainer). Take Avias Riara Triply frypan/ kadhai, heat over medium flame. Add ghee to the vessel once it's hot.

2- Once the ghee melts. Add all the spices and dried coconut. Stir for about 2 minutes and add in the kishmish, dates, almonds and cashew nuts. Roast this for about 1 min and add pista, cook until the nutty flavor develops.

3- Now add in the milk and saffron. Boil until the saffron releases its color and sweet smell. Now, add in the sugar, rose water and kewra water. Stir until everything mixes well. Add in the rice and carefully mix the milk in the rice in a lift and drop motion using a flat spoon. The aim is to avoid the rice grains from breaking.

4- Cover the vessel with a lid and cook on low flame for 5-7 minutes or until all of the liquid is absorbed by the rice.

5- Switch off the heat and leave the rice with the lid on for another 5 minutes. Open the lid and using a flat spoon, lift the rice from the sides to allow the grains to open up. Transfer to the serving platter and serve hot.
