The Desi Vegan

Vegetable Pulao is yet another Indian classic. This dish has three main components; rice, vegetables and spices. The traditional way of cooking a pulao would involve a pot simmering over a flame or a pressure cooker. However, I have found that microwaving rice is an easy way out for me. The dishes are easy to clean and more importantly, a microwave is accessible almost everywhere you go. Another great thing about this dish is that you can choose your vegetables. There are some I prefer but I always take into account what is left behind in the fridge. Any 4-5 vegetables from the list of ingredients below would make for a fantastic dish in my opinion. Depending on the vegetables you use, the pulao will actually end up having a slightly different colour as you will see in the pictures below.
