Mushroom Spinach Pulao

Tweet

As much as I love mushrooms, the huss detests it. I had tried many ways to feed him mushrooms some examples being this and this with no successful results. He never took a liking to the fungi until I made a simple garlic saute with butter and served it with some focaccia and soup. It became an instant hit and these days whenever we go grocery shopping, he never forgets to grab a pack of mushrooms. The other day I saw some beautiful bella mushrooms on sale and so we grabbed 4 BOXES. While I sauted most of them for breakfast, I saved some to make this flavorful pulao for lunch.

~*What U Need*~ Basmati rice - 1 cup Water - 1 1/2 cup Mushrooms - 1 cup, sliced Baby spinach - 1 cup, packed Onions - 1, sliced Tomato - 1, medium, chopped Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp or replace with 1 green chilli Garam masala - 1 tsp Salt, Oil Cinnamon - 1" Cloves - 2 Cardamom - 1, crushed Bayleaf - 1, optional Coriander leaves - to garnish How I Made it: Heat oil in a pressure cooker and temper with cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and bayleaf. Add onions and cook till soft. Add ginger garlic paste and saute till the raw smell goes off. Add the tomatoes and mix well. Once soft and mushy, add the spice powders and mix well. Add the mushrooms and spinach and saute well. Add the rice followed by the water, add a tbsp of ghee and chopped coriander leaves and pressure cook for 2 whistles. Remove and fluff with a fork.

Serve with raitha.

So thats it Folks...
With Love,
