Steps

30 minutes

1

To begin, wash the basmati rice well in water and soak it for 30 minutes.
2

To prepare the pulao, heat oil in a pan. Add in the whole spices - bay leaf, cumin seeds, green cardamoms, black cardamoms, cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, and mace. Mix and allow to crackle.
3

Next, add the sliced onions with green chillies. Saute until the onions are translucent.
4

Add the ginger garlic paste and saute for a minute.
5

Add in the vegetables. Saute for a few minutes.
6

Add the drained rice and mix gently.
7

Next, add the water with salt and lemon juice. Mix well. Cover with a lid and cook until the rice is done. Or pressure cook it for three whistles like I have and allow the pressure to drop.
8

Once the rice is done, let it rest for a few minutes and then fluff it up a bit.

The One-Pot Vegetable Pulao in Pressure Cooker is ready to serve. Garnish with coriander leaves. Serve hot with dahi tadka.
