Tomato Pulao



I have already posted Tomato Peas Bath and Mild Tomato Pulao recipe earlier. This is another version I learned from amma. It's so tasty that I had to share the recipe with you all.

Ingredients:
1.5 cups Basmathi Rice
3 tomatoes
1 small onion
5 cloves garlic
1 tsp grated ginger
2 green chillies
2 cloves
1 inch cinnamon
Salt
4 tbsp oil
2 tbsp ghee
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp chilli powder
A handful of frozen peas

Method:
Rinse and soak basmathi rice in water for 15 minutes. Drain and cook the rice in 3 cups of water. Set aside.
Heat oil in a pan. Fry cinnamon and cloves for few seconds.
Grind tomato, onion, ginger, garlic, green chilli to a fine paste without adding water. Add this paste to the pan. Add salt, turmeric, red chilli powder and cook the gravy until it becomes thick and oil starts to separate. Add frozen peas and simmer for five minutes.
Add this paste to cooked basmathi rice and mix well without mashing the rice.
Garnish with coriander leaves.
