Veg Pulao or Vegetable pulao is a delicious one pot meal and my personal favourite .Veg Pulao goes well with any veg or non veg gravies or even a simple veg kurma or dahi kadhi taste yumm wiht it..Usually served with raita and a roasted papadam in restaurants.
Veg pulao/Pilaf can be made quickly in pressure cooker and can be best option for lunch boxes especially in those busy mornings if you keep your veggies chopped in the fridge a day ahead.
I prefer making this in a pressure cooker ,however it can be made in a pan too .
Ingredients
1 cup basmati rice (soaked for 20 minutes)
2 cups water
maggi cube/stock cube (optional)
1 cup veggies ( green peas,1 carrot ,3-4 french beans)
1 onion sliced (Crisp fried till golden brown )
5-6 cashews
7-8 raisins
2 bay leaves
1 inch cinamon stick
3 green cardamom
3 cloves
1 blade mace/javitri
2 star anise
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1 1/2 tbsp ghee/oil
salt
Method
Notes
I do not add ginger garlic paste to my pulao .If you want you add 1 tsp ginger garlic paste after you add the whole spices and saute till the raw smell goes away.
Then add rice and water
You can add maggi cube or any stock cube to the water while its boiling it will enhance the taste,i usually add a veg stock cube
You can use kolam or any variety of short grain rice as well.
Always use aged rice for pulao ,new rice tends to be sticky and will result in a mushy pulao.
