Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Soak basmati rice in water for about 30 minutes.
  2. Grind green chillies, garlic and ginger to a fine paste. You can grind mint,coriander leaves with these and make a paste. You can chop the leaves and add them along with other veggies
  3. Heat butter in a pressure pan or any thick bottomed vessel.Add whole spices one by one.
  4. Saute for about a minute and then add onions.Once it becomes golden brown add the remaining vegetables
  5. Add a pinch of salt and 1/4 cup of water so that veggies will start to cook
  6. Now add the green chili+leaves paste and basmati rice
  7. At this stage add coconut milk or normal milk. This gives a good white colour to pulao along with its sweetness
  8. Mix everything with a spatula gently and close your pan
  9. Let it cook in low flame for about 10-12 minutes.
  10. As soon as the Rice gets cooked you can turn off the flame, leave the pan open for few minutes
  11. Use a fork and mix pulao. When it is hot the rice tends to break down and hence we need to be gentle while mixing the pulao
  12. Serve with raita or any gravy of your choice.
  13. I made mushroom masala and mixvegetable raita as sidedish.
Recipe Notes

1. If you are using Ponni Rice, then you can Pressure Cook the rice first, prepare the vegetable masala separately and mix them together

2. Or you can prepare the vegetable masala, add required water and cook the rice in electric rice cooker. For 1 cup of Ponni Rice you will need 3.5 cups of water, 1/4 cup milk and after approximately 25-30 minutes Pulao will be ready in rice cooker. (I followed the exact same recipe today, used ponni rice, prepared the masala separately, added it to rice cooker. belowpic & video are taken today 31/1/2019 for your reference)
