Soak the saffron in the warm milk. Wash the basmati rice and soak it in water for a minimum of 30 minutes. Add a teaspoon of vinegar to the rice while it soaks, it makes the colour of the rice pop naturally and you get longer grains too. Drain well before the cooking process.
Blend together 1 large diced tomato, 1 green chilli, 1 clove garlic and a handful of cilantro with ½ teaspoon salt. Blend it until it's just about crushed, it shouldn't be totally mashed, you need to see small bits of cilantro and tiny chunks of tomato.
