I am no poet, but I surely have figured out how to make a decent Pulav.
Ingredients:
A cup of rice.
A couple of potatoes, a few carrots and some beans. (maybe one onion also, I didn't have any)
A few green chillies. (3-5 depending on your ability to have spicy stuff)
The spices, the special biryani leaf, etc. ( I found a small packet costing 5 bucks called pulav spices in the neighbouring Mallu store )
Procedute:
1) Cut the vegetables
2) Soak the rice in water
3) Pour a little oil into the pan and heat by putting the flame in sim.
4) Slit the green chillies and add to the oil
5) Add the spices and some salt to taste
6) Add the cut vegetables
7) Keep stirring the vegetables at intervals of two minutes for some 10 minutes.
8) Remove the rice from the water and add it to the vegetables.
9) Stir for a couple of minutes.
10) Transfer the contents of the can to the electric cooker (a pressure cooker should also do)
11) Add 1.5 cups of water and let this mixture cook.
Your pulav is ready. Eat hot with curd or raitha.
P.S Pulava means poet in Tamizh.

I think i shuld get a job in bangalore and share the apartment with u.. wat say? :P
K7 i wud suggest not to soak the rice in water. Instead jus clean the rice and then fry it with ghee for a min or two, it would add a better taste to ur pulav. Rest is the same. Add the rice to the vegetables and then add the water..
As VK said , if I were to come to Bangy, I will stay put at your place for dinner. Will save me hundred odd :P
am hungry :)
first time here. nice one
Hmmm....good stuff...but for beginners like me u can put some light on how to put raitha also ;)

Be careful what you wish for. :P
@Sri
My pulav is more calorie conscious than yours.
@Rajeev
At your own risk. :P

You don't put potatoes in pulav. Not at all.
