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.

Mushroom and Spinach leaves are an amazing culinary power couple. Mushrooms when coated with spices and sautéed are so good, they can be used as a filling for a wrap or as a flavourful snack. In this recipe, they are used to make a Pulao, a simple, healthy and delicious rice dish. If you have a plant based yoghurt, I would recommend serving this dish with a bit of yoghurt on the side and a nice green salad.  I hope you enjoy the recipe and if you want to keep up to date with my content, you can follow me on Instagram  (thedesivegan1) .
