Quick Cilantro-Garlic Pilaf with Peas |
|
Serves: 4 Print this Recipe(Hara Dhaniya Lassan, aur Muttar ka Pullao) Category: Simple Herbs and Spices Pilafs, Vegan Makes 4 to 6 servings Indians routinely make everyday pullaos (pilafs) like this one in a pressure cooker to save time. You save even more time by not soaking the rice before cooking, as would be done for pan-cooked pullaos. The rice will stick together more than is common for basmati rice, but it is still satisfying and delicious. 2 tablespoons canola oil 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds 3 to 4 whole red chili peppers, such as chile de arbol 1 stick cinnamon (1-inch) 3 to 5 black cardamom pods, crushed lightly to break the skin 1 small onion, cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced 2 cloves fresh garlic (large), minced 1 to 3 fresh green chili peppers, such as serrano, minced with seeds 1 cup frozen peas 1 1/2 cups finely chopped fresh cilantro, including soft stems +2 tablespoons for garnish 1/2 teaspoon Garam Masala 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste 1 1/4 cups basmati rice, sorted and washed in 3 to 4 changes of water 2 1/3 cups water 1. Heat the oil in a pressure cooker over medium-high heat and add the cumin seeds, red chili peppers, cinnamon, and cardamom pods; they should sizzle upon contact with the hot oil. Quickly add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. 2. Add the garlic, green chili peppers, peas, cilantro, garam masala, and salt and cook over high heat, stirring, about 2 minutes. 3. Add the rice and the water, secure the lid of the pressure cooker, place it over high heat and cook until the pressure gauge indicates high pressure. Then remove from the heat and allow the pot to depressurize on its own, 12 to 15 minutes. Carefully open the lid. Do not stir or cook any more, or you will break the rice grains.
