Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside.
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pot and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cardamom, black pepper, and the cinnamon stick. Cook for about 1 minute to release the spices' aroma.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot and cook until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lentils to the pot and stir well to combine with the spices and tomatoes.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add the rinsed basmati rice to the pot. Stir well and season with salt to taste.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice and lentils are cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the pot from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes.
