I had corn pulav/ corn pulao/ corn pilaf only 2-3 times before. In buffet and once in flight. I loved it both the times. It was very simple to look at, yet had wonderful taste. Even Aj loved it when he has it with some dal in the flight and with aloo palak in the buffet once. So I had a thought of trying it since last year when I travelled to India, now after almost an year, now only I tried

To temper
Method
- I used frozen corn, if you are using the fresh sweet corn, first separate the kernels. Wash and keep aside. Soak the rice for at least 20 mins. Grind the items under ‘To grind’ table with little water to a smooth paste.
- Heat a pressure cooker with oil and temper with bay leaves and elachi followed by slit chillies. Add the ground paste and fry for 2 minutes in medium flame and let the raw smell go away.
- Add the corn and fry for another 2 minutes in medium flame. Add little salt for the corn. Add the milk and water, bring to boil.
- Add salt, mint leaves, coriander leaves and rice. When it starts boiling, check for salt and reduce the flame to lowest possible and cook for 12-15 minutes.
Notes
- You can add onions in the recipe, I wanted to make it simple so dint add.
- Milk gives a sweet richness, but you can replace it with coconut milk or water too.
- If you cant reduce the flame much in your stove, you can cook this same with different water ratio. If the flame is higher, then you may need more water.So experiment with your water ratio.
We had it with Paneer butter masala
Yummy Yummy!

ReplyDeleteHi I loved it.
ReplyDeleteI would like to make a small correction in your step wise presentation. You have written it as to grind the ingredients under "to temper" but I think you have actually grinded the other ingredients.
Kindly correct it
Yeah its by mistake, will correct it, thanks a lot for the mention.

Hi Rak's,
ReplyDeleteI am regular visitor of your blog. But yes, this is the first time I'm posting a comment. I love to read different recipes from here. I also have tried few of them and no doubt they have turned out SUPER DELICIOUS :). Yesterday I had few guests at my place and I had prepared this pulao and everyone appreciated that. Thanks a lot!! Also your Tiffin Sambar with toor dal, coconut chutney with coriander , Onion Tomato chutney, Idli, Veg fried rice (I changed this recipe a bit though) and few more are big hit. Thanks for your recipes once again!!! :)
Awesome recipe :) Came out super good.. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome recipe :) Came out super good.. :)
ReplyDeleteHi!! Sorry for asking something not related to your post. Which mixie you use? It has ground even little quantity in to smooth paste. The small jar in my mixie will never grind smoothly if the quantity is less. Most of the times I skip making dishes which require grinding becoz of this issue.
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance!!
This one is Panasonic, but at present I use preethi Nitro. My MIL uses philips, its small jar is perfect for grinding small quantity :)
DeleteJust to say, this lovely, comforting pulao has become a favourite!
