-
In a large pot, add the meat, water, onion, garlic, cloves, cinnamon sticks, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook the meat until tender.
-
Once the meat is cooked, strain the broth from the vegetables and spices. Set the meat aside and keep the broth warm for the rice and sauce.
-
In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of ghee over medium heat. Add the rice and sauté for a few minutes until the rice is well-coated in the ghee and the moisture evaporates.
-
Add the meat broth to the rice and bring it to a boil. Add salt, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for about 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid is absorbed.
-
In a separate pan, heat ghee over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.
-
Add the tomato sauce to the garlic and cook for a few minutes. Stir to combine and simmer the sauce on low for 10 minutes.
-
Tear the toasted bread into pieces and arrange it at the bottom of a serving dish. Pour some of the hot meat broth over the bread to soak it.
-
Add a layer of cooked rice over the soaked bread.
-
Top the rice with the cooked meat pieces.
-
Finally, pour the tomato sauce over the meat and rice.
