    I don't know if rinsing rice in cold water is better in some way for the condition of the rice or if it's just easier on the hands… but I was strictly taught to never let hot water from the tap touch food or drink. Water heaters collect scale and mud that stews for years, and that enters only the hot water. The extent varies with the water source and product model, obviously. Most folk don't need a reason, but there you have one.

    Interesting recipe though. I was led to believe that India has hundreds and thousands of unique dishes, but westerners only ever see those inherited from the British; but I digress. This just seems too good to have never seen it before. Serving a mountain of food has a primal magnificence that those dainty, elitist French plating technique can't really compete with.

    I'm going to be trying rice as a foundation for home cooking to escape Ultra Processed Foods; largely because good health is often found in a routine. Most of the world revolves around rice, and I'm optimistic that there are many healthy and delicious examples like this. It might seem corny, but that layered heap captured my attention, and it felt inspirational, speaking as an American who only eats out of plastic bags and cardboard boxes.

    If you're doing the raw chicken (kaccha gosht) method, then all the chicken needs to be at the bottom. If you're layering the meat in the middle, then the meat is cooked and browned a bit more than what you showed. Also, ghee and bayleaf could be added. Otherwise, it's on the mark.
