   While the lamb is simmering, prepare the rice. Soak the rinsed basmati rice in salted water for at least 30 minutes, then drain.

   Wskazówka kucharza: Soaking helps achieve longer, fluffier rice grains.

    In a clean large pot, add vegetable oil and a thin layer of water. If desired, place a thin flatbread or potato slices on the bottom for tahdig.
