I tried to replicate the rice that is served in a nearby Indian restaurant and believe this to be very close. Anyway, it's good! How can you go wrong with basmati?
Saute the rice in the butter for a couple of minutes. Add the water and spices and bring to a boil, cover and simmer ~15 minutes. I sometimes add a handful of frozen English peas, too.
