Babycorn and Cauliflower Pulav


Every kid opens his lunch box expecting a great deal of a surprise inside. :) I have come across that age and yes I did expect something fishy in my box everyday to tickle my tongue and to share with my friends.

Mixed rice or pulav has always been a super good choice I would love to have. Because it fills my tummy and satisfies my tongue.

I just love baby corns and cauliflower so much.. So this combi of both was a treat to me and sure would be to you too. :)

Ingredients:

Rice - 1 cup
Baby corn cobs - 5

Cauliflower flowerettes - 1 cup
Onions - 2
Bay leaf - 1
Cinnamon - 1 inch stick

Cardamoms - 2
Cloves -3
Ghee - for frying

Salt - for taste

To grind:

Onion -1 big

Garlic - 4 pods
Ginger - 1/2 inch piece
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Coriander powder - 1 tbl sp
Garam masala powder - 1/4 tsp

Chilly powder - 1 tsp



Method:

Soak rice in water for ten min. In a pressure pan
take a spoon of ghee and fry bay leaf, cinnamon, cardamoms and cloves. Now add chopped onions to it and saute till it turns golder brown. Add the ground masala paste and fry till ghee floats on top. Now add chopped baby corns and cauliflower flowerettes and fry for few minutes. Once done add the rice along with required amount of water and salt. Cook it for one whistle.

Baby corn and cauliflower pulav is ready to eat. Serve it hot with raitha of your choice. :)

This quantity will suffice 4 people.

Happy making and enjoy eating :)
