Veg Pulao or Vegetable Pulao is a spicy rice dish prepared by cooking rice with various vegetables and spices similar to Veg Biryani Recipe But very few people know the difference, we will surely come with some article explaining the difference.

Vegetable Pulao recipe that we are giving here is the easiest of all pulao recipes that you could find on internet - no pressure cooking, no grinding of masala and you can literally make this mixed vegetable pulao in less than 10 minutes. And yes we never compromise on taste part!

All the ingredients that have been used in this recipe are staple and there is basically no complexity in the cooking technique as well. We would suggest that if you are an amateur cook, then definitely do try this recipe because there is absolutely nothing where you can go wrong. Use vegetables of choice like cabbage, capsicum, mushrooms, sweet corn or whatever .we bet, it is going to be the tastiest comfort food for you.

When it comes to Pulao, then there are enormous recipes with different ingredients as well as cooking techniques. Definitely this makes each one taste very different from the other. Some pulao are cooked in pressure cooker like Potato Pulao and Matar Paneer Pulao, whereas you can cook some in a pot or pan where no pressure cooking is involved like Soya Chunks Pulao, Awadhi Vegetable Pulao, Maharashrian style Green Beans Pulao flavored with desiccated coconut and garlic flavored Sweet Corn & Beans Pulao. Also few pulao recipes involve simple Stir Fry technique like Mint Pulao, Jeera Rice and the very special Persian style Shivid Polow which is made with Sua or Dill greens.



Vegetable pulao is so flavorful that trust me you do not need any accompaniments with it. But since everyone has a different taste, hence if you want some side dishes as well, then serve it with Onion Chilly Ginger Raita, Coriander Raita or Potato Raita. You can also team with pickles like Mango Pickle, Rajasthani Green Chilly Pickle or Garlic Pickle.

For a different flavor, top this vegetable pulao with ghee and sprinkle some Andhra Podi. Try it once you would love it.

For simple lunch or dinner you can serve Chana Dal Lauki or Navratan Dal with Aloo Chawali Sabzi or Sua Saag Aloo along with Pudina Parantha and Vegetable Pulao. Team along Mooli Ki Chutney or Tomato Onion Thokku to complete your meal.

How to make Veg Pulao
