Slice onion. Clean and soak rice. Heat fat. Fry onions till crisp and golden, and remove. Fry whole garam masala; when it crackles add rice and fry. Add hot water in the proportion 1: 2 (rice 1: water 2 ) and salt. When rice is cooked, finish off either in the oven or with live coal on top of the lid. Serve hot, garnished with fried onions.
