This is the very basic kind of Pulao recipe which I’m making since almost 29 years and the noticeable part is I’m making it in these particular method only since all these years. I haven’t even done a small change and can never even think of doing so

Here are the two methods –

Without onion, mint leaves, coriander leaves and curry leaves
By also adding all these things

So let’s directly get into the recipe details without delay

Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml

Rice – 3/4 cup
Boiled water – 1&1/2 cup
Oil/Ghee – 1&1/2 tbsp (Ghee enhances the taste)
Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
Onion – 1/2 cup (skip for onion less version)
Salt – 1&1/2 tsp

Vegetables cut lengthwise :

French beans – 1/4 cup
Carrot – 1/4 cup
Capsicum – 1/4 cup
Cabbage – 1/4 cup
Fresh peas – 1/4 cup
Cauliflower florets – 1/4 cup

Others :

Mint leaves – 1/2 fistful
Coriander leaves – 1/2 fistful
Curry leaves – 1 sprig

To grind together :

Grated fresh coconut – 1/4 cup
Green chili – 3 to 4 (adjust)
Red chili powder (less hot, which gives out colour) – 1/2 tsp
LDE powder – 1 tsp (LDE = equal quantity of Cinnamon, Clove and Cardamom powdered together)
Turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp (add 1 tsp if you are using raw turmeric)
Ginger – 1/2 tbsp

PROCEDURE :

Gather and grind together all the ingredients listed below the heading ‘to grind together’

Heat oil/Ghee in a cooker, put cumin seeds once splutter put onion and saute until translucent, then add the ground paste

Now take mint leaves, coriander leaves and curry leaves into the same mixie jar and grind by adding little water (take portion of water out of reserved 1&1/2 cup) and add it to the cooker and stir once

Now put all the vegetables and remaining water, stir and let it come to boil, once it starts boiling put well rinsed rice and let it come to boil again

You can put cauliflower now to retain its shape, close the lid and cook until one whistle. (One whistle is enough in my cooker, but you can do as per your cooker requirement). Once pressure is released completely, you can see that the yummy Pulao is ready to consume
