Ingredients

  • 1 Azhakku Basmati rice
  • 1 Bell pepper (capsicum)
  • 1 Carrot
  • 100 Grams Beans
  • 100 Grams Cabbage (grated)
  • 1 Bunch Mint leaves (small)
  • 5 Green chilli
  • 1 Teaspoon White pepper powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Ajinomoto (MSG)
  • as needed Salt
  • as needed Oil

Instructions

  1. Cook the rice with water in a 1:2 ratio so the rice grains stay separate and fluffy. Cut the vegetables into 1-inch pieces and parboil them along with the green chillies until three-quarters cooked. Heat a spoon of oil in a pan, add the mint leaves and sauté. Then add the vegetables and salt, toss once, and mix into the cooled rice. Add the Ajinomoto and white pepper powder and mix everything together. Chinese pulao is ready.
