Vegetable Pulao / Pulav
Finally the drizzles are here and I'm loving the climate completely hope this continues for the coming days as well......Had a busy week both at work and home.More busy days ahead, so am trying to keep myself prepared for them. Coming to todays recipe vegetable pulao : This is a easy and filling one pot meal....It just needs raita to finish off the bowl. Only chopping the veggies is time consuming and even for that my chopper comes to the rescue :) If thats ready this pulao can be done in a jiffy.  Ingredients: Basmati Rice-1 cupOnion chopped - 1/2 medium chopped lengthwiseCloves-2Cinnamon-1 inch stickCardomom - 1Jeera -2 tspGreen chilli chopped finely -1Ginger garlic paste - 3 tspVegetables of ur choice - almost 1/2 cup[I used 2 carrots, 4-5 beans and handful of peas] Oil-1 tbspGhee-1 tbspSalt - to tasteRed chilli powder-1 tspWater-1.5 cups Method: Rinse rice well twice atleast and soak in water for 30mins. In a pressure cooker, Heat 1tbsp of oil and 1/2 tbsp of ghee.....Fry cloves, cinnamon and cardamom. Add jeera, gingergarlic paste, onions and green chillies. Fry for 2-3 minutes. Now add veggies with salt and fry for few minutes.The veggies should be crunchy not soft. Add chilli powder and mix well. Now add the basmati rice and fry for 3 mins. Now add exactly 1.5 cups of water and allow it to boil. Close and pressure cook it for 8-9 mins. Open and garnish with ghee fried cashews. Add remaining 1/2 tbsp of ghee and mix gently. Serve with onion raitha or plain curd.  The aroma of ghee with vegetables in rice with garnished cashews.....hmm yummmmy!! I am not a fan of restaurant pulaos becos most of them have strong flavours of the spices....I like mine to be less flavoured and thats the reason I started trying out pulaos at home :)  related searches : Vegetable
