This 30 min meal is packed with veggies and flavor and made extra special with Daawat Basmati Rice. Their pearly white grains stay fluffy, separate, and soak up all that masala without ever getting mushy.
1. Wash your rice until the water turns clear. Soak the rice in hot water for 10 to 15 minutes.
2. Bring a pot of water to boil, once boiling add salt.
3. Drain the soaked rice and drop that into the boiling water. Cook for seven minutes. Drain it and set it aside.
4. In a pan, heat up some oil or butter, add onions, sauté for one to two minutes. Then add ginger, garlic, and chili paste; sauté until it’s fragrant.
5. Add the rest of the veggies, sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, add peas, and tomatoes. Cook for 1 -2 minutes. Add in all the masalas and let this sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
6. Add cooked rice and fill the rice in with the veggies.
7. Garnish with cilantro, scallions, and paneer. Enjoy!
