Wash the basmati rice under the tap until the water runs clear and drain it.
Put the onion and garlic in the mixing bowl and chop 4 sec/speed 5.
Add the oil, the cinnamon, the cardamom, the cloves, the bay leaf and the cumin.
Saute the spices 5 min/120C/spoon speed so they release their aroma.
Add the drained rice and toast it 2 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed.
Pour in the water and the salt and set 12 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed.
Check that the rice is tender and has absorbed the water.
Let rest 5 min covered so the grain finishes swelling.
Stir with a fork to loosen the grain and remove the whole spices before serving.
