  2. Then strain out the rice through a strainer to drain the water and wash it under cold running water so that the rice grains remain separate.
  3. Heat ghee in a pan. Sauté cardamom, cinnamon stick, raisin, cloves, bay leaves, and 1 Tbs chopped almond in the Ghee for 1 minute. Then add rice into the pan and carefully stir it to coat the rice with ghee.

  4. Cook it in low heat for about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally. Then uncover the lid and carefully stir the rice to evaporate the excess moisture from the rice.
  5. Now put your jorda in a serving dish and garnish with pistachios, rest of almond and Kalojam.
