Layer soaked basmati rice over the mutton evenly.

Sprinkle saffron dissolved in warm water over the rice.

Add chopped cilantro, mint, and dried fruits on top of the rice.

Pour in water and lemon juice, ensuring rice is just covered.

Remove from heat and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Fluff the rice gently with a fork before serving.
