For the rice- Boil 2 cups of water in a deep non-stick pan, add the bayleaf, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, rice and salt and mix well.
- Cover with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 8 to 10 minutes or till the rice is cooked. Separate each grain of rice lightly with a fork. Keep aside.

- Add the green peas, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 more minute. Keep aside.
How to proceed- Spread the rice evenly in a greased baking dish with the back of the spoon.
