Tomato Paneer Pulav
Rice, rice , rice.
Rice brings me great comfort as it is easy to cook, quick and well, I grew up
on it! Variety rice gets a big thumbs up from me as I could get away with one
dish and maybe a raita. I saw a tomato paneer pulav in Sanjeev Kapoor's website
and thought it was worth trying. For a change, I did fry the paneer in little
oil this time and got reminded of how nice fried paneer would be, ofcourse
fattening too. Anyway, I used just a spoon of oil to fry the cubed paneer. I
liked how the recipe called for pav bhaji masala as it was a good way to use it
considering I seldom make pav bhaji. Here is the recipe...
3 tomatoes, chopped
2 cups chopped
vegetables
3 cups rice
About 200g of paneer,
cut into bite size pieces
2 teaspoon pav bhaji
masala
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon coriander
powder
2-3 green chillies, slit
2 teaspoon butter
Salt to taste
Cooking oil
Heat some oil and fry
the paneer cubes. I did not deep fry but sautéd it until golden brown
Heat some oil and
butter and add the cumin seeds and allow it to brown and then add the onions
and green chillies and fry until soft
Add the tomatoes and
cook for couple of minutes
Add vegetables (I used
frozen carrots, cauliflower, peas and broccoli) and cook until vegetables are
done the tomato is mushy but almost all the water has gone
Add pav bhaji masala
and coriander powder and cook until raw smell goes. You could add some chilly
powder if you desire
Add required salt and
then add the cooked rice and fried paneer, mix well. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve
