1️⃣Cook the basmati rice so it’s just cooked. I heat a big saucepan of water and add rice and when it’s boiling, I keep checking that the rice is done. When it’s just cooked I quickly drain the water and rice and keep the rice aside. You can use the rice cooker if you’re more comfortable but whenever I cook rice in the rice cooker it’s not very separated. For normal days it’s fine but for pulao the rice should not stick but be light and separated. 2️⃣Heat the ghee in a wide pan. 3️⃣Add cumin seeds when ghee is hot and let it darken. Reduce heat to low. 4️⃣Add the salt, cinnamon and sugar. Stir once. 5️⃣Add the peas and carrots 6️⃣Add the rice and mix well 7️⃣Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes stirring once or twice. Pulao is ready-enjoy! .
