Add unwashed rice to the pan and stir gently to coat the rice in the butter and onions for 1-2 minutes.

Pour in the hot water and stir everything together.

Add salt, pepper, and the mix of spices (curry powder and turmeric).

Increase heat slightly and wait until the mixture is almost boiling, then turn off the heat.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (410 Fahrenheit).

Cover the pan and place it in the oven for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and fluff the rice to separate the grains.

Serve the rice and garnish with coriander and fried shallots.
