Season the beef with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Add 2 teaspoons turmeric, 2 teaspoons black lemon powder, 2 teaspoons cumin, 2 teaspoons chili powder, 2 teaspoons coriander powder, and 1 teaspoon green cardamom powder to the beef.
Mix the beef and spices thoroughly, using hands or a spoon.
Cover the beef with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Heat sunflower oil in a decent-sized pot and add whole spices: cinnamon, bay leaves, cloves, and cumin seeds.
Sauté the spices for a few seconds to infuse the oil with flavor.
Add the seasoned beef to the pot and brown it for about 5-6 minutes over high heat.
Add enough water to cover the beef and cook until the water evaporates, stirring occasionally.
If needed, repeat adding water and cooking until the beef is tender, about 4-5 minutes each time.
Add 2 diced onions and 2 tablespoons of chopped garlic to the pot and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
Add 3 diced tomatoes and cover the pot, cooking on low heat for 20-30 minutes until the tomatoes break down and release moisture.
Check the mixture; if it looks dry, add water or stock as necessary.
Turn off the heat after 30 minutes when the beef is tender and the mixture is well cooked.
In a separate pot, cook 4 cups of basmati rice with 8 cups of water and a bit of extra cardamom until it's 75-80% cooked, then drain.
In the same pot used for the rice, layer the cooked beef, followed by a layer of rice, then optional dried fruit and cilantro.
Repeat the layering process, finishing with a layer of rice on top and half of the crispy fried onions.
Optionally, mix a teaspoon of turmeric with water and drizzle over the top before adding the remaining crispy onions.
