Mix Veg Pulao the name itself describes everything that it is a mixture/combination of vegetables. The key ingredients are all the vegetables. You can add any vegetables as per your choice. To make pulao basmati rice is used (mostly soaked). Veg Pulao is one such dish which is most commonly liked by all and which all can make instantly without any hesitation. Mostly each and everyone have different style to make pulao some of them use cashew, raisins or whole spices such as cardamom, cinamon, star anise, black pepper, clove, bay leaf etc. dry roast them and grind them dry without water, some of them only use the readymade pulao masala etc. That is each and everyone have their own style of making pulao. Pulao with the combination of boondi raita/spiced yoghurt/plain dahi is just yumm and very authentic. It is usually served in wedding and other occasions. It is not that it is not made at home regularly , mostly it is made during weekends and any other special occassions. I make pulao mostly during every weekends.
