Vegetable masala Pulao

This is one of the best variations of rice that I have cooked so far. I used a special masala (pav bhaji masala) which I never thought could go with rice. It was very easy to prepare and was very very very delicious.

Ingredients:

Boiled basmati rice : 3 cups 

Oil - 3 tbsp

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp 

Onion - 1 chopped

Tomato - 1 chopped

Beans - 1/4 cup 

Carrots - 1/2 cup 

Green peas - 1/4 cup 

Long mild green chilli - 2 chopped 

Pav bhaji masala - 2 tsp 

Garam masala - 1 tsp 

Red chilli powder - 1 1/2 tsp 

Lemon juice -  1 to 2 tsp

Procedure: 

1. Heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds. Once they start to change color add chopped onion and cook it till it becomes translucent. 
2. Add tomatoes and salt. Cover it and cook it for a minute. 
3. Add carrot, beans and let it cook. 
4. Add green peas and sprinkle pav bhaji masala and cook for few mins. 
5. Add rice to the above and sprinkle pav bhaji masala, red chilli powder, garam masala, salt and mix well. 
6. Sprinkle some water to make it a little moist. Add the chopped chilli and coriander leaves and cook it. Sprinkle some lemon juice before serving.

Enjoy with raitha on the side!!!!
