  • Once the oil is hot, add green chillies, bay leaves, cinnamon and crushed peppercorns and give it a good stir
  • Next add the chopped potatoes, carrots, tomatoes and saute until for a few minutes until they are slightly soft.
  • Add 2 cups of water for 1 cup of sama rice to get a creamy consistency.
