An amazingly delish idea by me this festive season for you all. The aromatic rice speaks for itself when it is served to your guests. Made totally my way using spices from my pantry of my choice and liking. Use any number of veggies you wish for this. A complete one pot meal that can be relished on it's own or with a simple mint raita as i did. Stunningly beautiful and aromatic due to the spices used that adorns your dining table with it's neat presentation and looks. Happy Cooking!
Enjoy Innovative Cooking with Zee!

Steps

40-45 minutes

1

Soak rice in enough water for 20 minutes. Cook al dente with caraway seeds and maggi seasoning cubes. Also add salt as per taste and a tablespoon of lemon juice for a fluffier rice.
2

In a cooking pot, heat oil and saute onions with ginger garlic paste until light pinkish in colour. Add chicken cubes to the pot along with the other spices one by one. Also add kasuri methi to it. Mix well and saute until the chicken is done. Also add the veggies of your choice now.
3

Do not cook them much as they should retain the crunch. Adjust spices according to taste. Cover and simmer for 15-18 minutes on a medium high heat. Add in cooked rice and mix well taking care not to break the grains.
4

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with mint raita as i did to your family and guests.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
