Soak 1 cup of chickpeas in water for about 8 hours or overnight.
After soaking, transfer the chickpeas to a pressure cooker and add 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon salt, a few cloves, and 1 small bay leaf. Pour enough water to immerse the chickpeas and mix.
Close the pressure cooker and cook for about 4 whistles on medium flame.
Open the pressure cooker to check if the chickpeas are soft.
In a bowl, wash 300 grams of long grain basmati rice a few times and soak it for about 30 minutes.
In a deep pot, heat 2 tablespoons of ghee and 2 tablespoons of oil. Add whole spices: bay leaf, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, 1 teaspoon fennel seeds, and 1 teaspoon cumin seeds. Sauté until fragrant.
Add 2 large thinly sliced onions and 5 slit green chillies. Sauté until the onions turn golden brown.
Add 2 teaspoons of fresh ginger garlic paste and mix well.
Add 4 finely chopped ripe tomatoes and sauté until they become mushy.
Once the tomatoes are mushy, add 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons red chili powder, 1 teaspoon coriander powder, and 2 teaspoons chana masala powder. Mix everything well until combined.
Add the cooked chickpeas along with their cooking water and mix well.
Add a handful of fresh mint leaves and a handful of fresh coriander leaves. Mix everything well.
Gently add the soaked basmati rice and mix carefully to avoid breaking the rice.
Add 2 cups of hot water and mix everything well.
Close the pot, reduce the flame to medium-low, and let the rice cook for about 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, check the rice; it should be cooked and flavorful.
