1. 1

   Wash, soak and drain the rice. Set aside. Heat the oil in a heavy, medium-size saucepan over moderate heat. Add the cashews and fry until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

2. 2

   Add the mustard seeds to the pan; when the seeds begin to sizzle and splutter, add the chiles and kari leaves. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute, then add the rice. Stir and fry until the rice grains are glistening and coated with oil, about 5 minutes.
