Ingredients

  • 2 cups Basmati Rice
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 tbsp Cooking Oil
  • 2 medium Onions
  • 1 medium Tomatoes
  • 1 tsp Ginger Garlic Paste
  • 4 nos Green Chillies
  • A pinch Turmeric Powder
  • 1/2 cup Carrots
  • 1/2 cup Beans
  • 1/2 cup Peas
  • 1/2 cup Potatoes

  • 1 inch Cinnamon
  • 5 Cloves
  • 1/4 cup Mint Leaves
  • Coriander Leaves for garnishing
  • 1/2 cup Curds
  • 4 cups Water
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Clean and soak Basmati rice for 15 mins in water. Refer here for my method of cooking Basmati Rice.
  • Chop all the vegetables. Keep it aside.
  • Heat Oil and butter in a pan in which you are going to cook.
  • Add all the whole spices, then add onions, Green Chillies, Mint leaves. Saute till they are golden in colour.
  • Then add ginger garlic paste. Once its cooked well, add the Vegetables. Fry for 5 mins.
  • Then add drained rice and fry gently so that the rice is coated well in butter and at the same it does not get broken.
  • Then add tomatoes, Curd, Salt to taste, turmeric powder, water. Normally for cooking basmati rice we use 1 - 1 & 1/2 ratio but since we have all the vegetables to cook I added 1-2 ratio of water.
  • Pressure cook the rice and garnish with Coriander leaves.
