Vegetable Pulao Recipe

Vegetable Pulao Recipe

Vegetable Pulao Recipe (instant Pot) is a quick and easy rice variety combining vegetables of our choice along with rice. In this recipe, I used instant pot to cook the pulao which is ultimately, the quickest way to make pulao. I followed very easy steps of cutting vegetables, combine everything along with rice and some spices inside the pot, set the pressure cook mode. It is as simple as that. Even with pressure cooker, it is same way with a monitoring to turn off flame after the required cook time

Ingredients to make Vegetable Pulao Recipe:

preparation Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 20 mins | Serves: 2-3

  • Basmati Rice – 1 cup (250grams)

  • Pressure Builds in 5 minutes, pressure valve pops up and Display shows Turned ON
  • Times starts to appear in some time and started to count down (4..3..2..1..0)
  • After 4 minutes, a beep sound comes indicating to turn off
  • it automatically switches to “Keep Warm”. (Its our wish to cancel it or leave as such)
