Tawa Pulao



I had seen this in Aipi's blog sometime back. When i received a mail from aipi telling me that her blog has been chosen for this month's Tried and tasted, i thought i will cook this. Not that i needed an event to try from her blog:-)I have tried many of her recipes, they turn out just perfect.
This rice dish was perfect for my theme of Blogger Marathon 2 too, so here comes the perfect street food recipe

INGREDIENTS

Cooked basmati rice 2 cups

Mixed cut vegetable(i used carrot, beans,Cauliflower) 1 cup

Onion 1 diced

Tomato 1 diced

Bell pepper 1 diced

Ginger garlic paste 1 tsp

Pav bhaji masala 1 tsp

Garam masala 1 tsp

Cumin seeds 1 tsp

Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp

Asafoetida 1/4 tsp

Red chilli powder 1 tsp

Lemon juice 2 tsp

Salt to taste

Oil 2 tbsp

Cilantro to garnish


PREPARATION

Heat the oil in a non stick pan. Add asafoetida and cumin seeds

When it splutters add the diced onions and the turmeric powder and saute it for 2 minutes

Now add the cut tomatoes and the ginger garlic paste. When a good aroma comes out add the cut vegetables and saute further for 5 -7 minutes.

Time to add the the chilli powder,Pav bhaji masala, Garam masala and saute it.
