The Flavorful Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao Recipe
Loaded with veggies and flavorful chicken, warm spices like cumin, cinnamon, nutmeg and mace and the heat of green chilies this Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao is a delight to the taste buds in every bite!

The Flavorful Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao Recipe

Chicken broth and seasonings are added to give it lots of flavor and moisture. It’s a one-pot meal to prepare and cook in a pot that comes together quickly for a hearty and hot week-night dinner.

There are some Rice Pulao that are overly packed with gorgeous spices flavors, but this isn’t one of those. This Chicken pulao is a medley of rice, chicken, spices, and vegetables. I just add a tiny sprinkle of green onion as a garnish, just to add a little more color when serving. Pairs perfectly with any raita or curry of your choice.

The Flavorful Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao Recipe

What goes in Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao

The ingredients you need to make this Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao are:
- Best rice for pulao – basmati rice is the best for both flavor and fluffiness. Basmati is a type of long grain rice – the longer the grain, the fluffier the rice. It also has a lovely subtle fragrance that really compliments the flavors in this rice pilaf; You can use brown rice as well for this pulao recipe.
- Chicken: The juicy thighs or chicken breast are the ideal meat choices for making pulao. You can use either the boneless pieces or the bone-in ones like leg pieces. I personally, like pulao with boneless chicken pieces.
- Fat – Ideally desi ghee (clarifying butter) is the best choice for making the pulao. I choose the clarified butter (desi ghee) for flavor, but if the aroma and taste of ghee are too over-powering for you, use unsalted butter, coconut oil, or any other cooking oil.
- Flavor Base – sautéed ginger and onion, to add savouriness;
- Pulao Spices – I’ve used a combination of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, mace, bay leaves and cumin in this Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao. It’s reminiscent of traditional Middle Eastern flavors but also a festive combination. Feel free to customize this to your own taste;
- Broth OR water – For extra flavor, I almost always make my pulao with broth. However, water will work just fine as well, though I’d add an extra pinch of each of the spices;
- Vegetables – Use any vegetables you like here. I like using carrot and green peas for a vibrant color, and potatoes because the flavor melds in nicely with the rice. Cabbage and Capsicum also work well but be aware that they provide a sharper pop of flavor. Broccoli would also be great.
- Garnishing – I’ve used green onions in this mix vegetable chicken pulao recipe. I adore both the flavor and fresh green color that green onion bring to this pulao. Fresh Coriander and Mint Leaves are also great!
How to make Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao:

Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao is straight forward to make.
1. Soak the rice for 30 minutes then drain.
2. Sauté onion and whole spices in butter, then add the ginger and chicken along with seasoning. Cook for 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and all juices run clear.
3. Then add carrots, green peas and potatoes cook 5-7 minutes or until vegetables crisp-tender then add chicken broth and bring it to boil. Then add rice cover the pot and let it simmer on medium low flame or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. This takes roughly 10 minutes.
4. Now give a dum for a further 15 minutes. Fluff the rice and dish it out.
But here are my tips for how to make the best Pulao every time!
- Soaking Rice or not: Soaking white rice for about half an hour before cooking allows moisture to get to the middle of the kernel. During cooking, the heat transfers quicker to the middle and the rice will be done in about eight minutes, causing less damage to the outside of the kernel. Thus, it’s more evenly cooked, and easier to separate than the non-soaked rice.
- Right liquid to rice ratio – 1 1/2 Cups of liquid to 1 cup of rice will yield perfectly cooked fluffy rice. Adding too much liquid to cook rice always results in a mushy and sticky pulao
- Do not peek while rice is cooking! Escaped heat compromises the cooking of the rice;
- Rest undisturbed – this is the most important step for cooking rice. This is when the rice finishes cooking and becomes fluffy!
What To Serve With Mix Vegetable Chicken Pulao?

This is home-style, hearty chicken pulao with delicious flavors full of spices and aroma. I suggest, serve it hot right after dum (steaming) with zeera raita, or mint raita and kachumber salad for best taste. It would also go really well with my Chicken Shorba– a mild flavored desi style chicken stew with a great combination of Oriental spices.

What makes hot and sour Noodles HOT?

The heat in this hot and sour noodles comes from red pepper flakes and hot pepper sauce. The noodles has to be on the hotter side. The sourness comes from adding vinegar right at the end. If you add the vinegar in the beginning or towards the middle, the vinegar will evaporate during cooking. Which is why we add the vinegar right at the end.

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish Recipe
Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish is a thing of beauty, with its crispy golden crust and spicy, juicy flesh inside. It’s a super quick and can be ready in less than 20 minutes and tastes just like the restaurant’s you would think it’s take-out. Recreate your favorite Tawa Fish cheaper and better at home!

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

One of the things I find so much fun about food blogging as a living is putting myself up to the challenge of recreating restaurant favorites at home. Although often involving a series of trial and error, it’s very rewarding to come up with a homemade version that’s pretty close to, if not better, than the original.

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

The way I cook this Tawa Fish is a little unorthodox – but it’s a highly effective, no fail method! A blast of heat in a griddle pan and a basting of mustard oil and fish own juices does wonders for plain fish.

This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish is made with a basic combination of rice flour and desi seasonings. Don’t be fooled by the simplicity of this dish. The fish fries up crispy and delicious. The cooking time is so short that the smell — which, if your fish is fresh and not funky, should not be overpowering — will dissipate quickly. And in the meantime, you have an easy dinner of spicy fish with a toothsome crust, anointed with rice flour and spices, mustard oil , perfumed with fresh Lemon wedges, paired with apricot chutney and naan.

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

Rohu and Catla (Thela) Fish are two excellent choices for Tawa Fish, but baam, cod, or any other mild white fish should work fine. You can use any fish but my preference is rohu, skin on or off, as long as it is not too thick. Be careful not to overcook thin fillets.
If the fish starts browning too fast, reduce the heat and add a splash of mustard oil to prevent scorching, or squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.

How to cook Perfect Tawa Fish every time!

1. Use a heavy duty Griddle (Tawa) – it DOES NOT need to be a non stick griddle or pan! Contrary to popular belief, it’s not just about using a non stick pan. A thin, cheap non stick pan will cause the fish to be in closer and harsher contact with the stove, causing the fish to brown unevenly in the few minutes it’s on the stove. Some crispy patches, some not so crispy ones.
Use a heavy duty Griddle (Tawa), like a cast iron pan or a good quality, heavy non stick frying pan. I love my Griddle Pan, it heats better, and more evenly, which really helps to get an even, golden, crispy crust.

2. Heat the pan first before adding the oil – I have NEVER had problems with fish sticking to the pan since I adopted this technique. It’s just an easy way to ensure the oil is hot enough but not too hot (a common mistake people make).
To do this, just heat a dry pan, and as soon as you see small wisps of smoke, add oil, swirl to coat base, then immediately add the fish.

3. If it sticks a bit, do not move until it naturally releases – Most fish fillets will initially stick to the pan as they start to cook (unless you’re using so much oil you’re basically shallow frying them). But it naturally releases once the surface is cooked and golden.
So give it a nudge, and if it doesn’t want to move, then it means that it’s not ready. So just leave it and try again in another 15 seconds or so!

4. Pat fish dry – Dry fish = crispier surface. Especially important for thawed frozen fish.

5. Keep Basting with a little oil and its own juices – it will gives nice juicy flavor.

Packed generously with a crunchy coating but there is so much more to it than what meets the eye! The flavor beneath the crunchy golden layer is delicious because of the magical spice that hits you with the first bite!! This is one fish that everyone is sure to love. Using this Restaurant Style Tawa Fish recipe, you’ll get perfectly flavored tawa fish.

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

That’s one last picture before you go. So that you can get a close, hard look at this Restaurant Style Tawa Fish and get tempted. Oh so so tempted.

Restaurant Style Tawa Fish Recipe

Sauces or Chutney For Tawa Fish

With well seasoned crispy golden texture outside and spicy juicy flesh inside, I don’t need anything more than a squeeze of fresh lemon. But I am a sauce person, so I never turn down a sauce even for fish! Here are my few favorite Sauces for Tawa Fish:
- Apricot Chutney (Khubani Ki Chutney) for Tawa Fish – this is an absolute ripper. Totally restaurant worthy, few ingredients, the secret is to soak apricots before preparing the chutney.
- Mint Tamarind Chutney for fish – a shop stopper kind of chutney with its tangy Minty flavor – made with fresh mint leaves and tamarind pulp.
- Imli ki Chutney – traditionally thought of for fried fish but equally good with the Tawa Fish.
- Data Chutney / Khajoor ki Chutney – This smooth chutney, which balances the tartness of vinegar with the sweetness of dates, is a delicious accompaniment to the Tawa Fish & Naan.
- Brown Chutney – for Fish Mellow down the spice of fish by adding a little brown chutney.
- Lemon Chutney for Fish. Lip-smacking chutney to add more zesty flavor to Tawa Fish. It’s finger licking good!
This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish recipe is ‘sea’riously worth trying , it’s cheaper to make at home and tastes so much better!

The first word that comes into your mind when you think about an iftari is? Yes its pakora! Pakoras are one snack associated with Iftar here in Pakistan. Truly, a Pakistani iftar is incomplete without the presence of a mighty pakora. The word pakora is derived from a Sanskrit word “pakvavata” which means small food lump (pakva means cooked and vata means small lump). Pakoras can be made out of anything, from a simple potato, daal mung, spinach, chicken or even cheese.

Tandoori Spiced Baked Chicken in Yogurt Masala Recipe

Well, when I am sad and tired and overall cranky, I likes to eat the food prepared by my mothers hand, the flavorful easy to make food I grew up eating and these Tandoori Spiced Baked Chicken in Yogurt Masala hit the spot. Neither World’s most expensive dish Nor World’s best restaurant can compete Home Cooked Food by Mothers Hand 🙂

On to today’s recipe!

Tandoori Spiced Baked Chicken

Today’s recipe is a favorite of me and my family. It’s a revamped version of this tandoori Roast Chicken Recipe which is one of my popular recipes on the blog! Why is it revamped? Well, because this recipe is more of tastiest than the old one and this is my favorite version: the chicken is deliciously spiced with yogurt marination, and the mango chutney served alongside adds fruity, tangy flavor.

Recipe Photo: Tandoori Spiced Baked Chicken In Yogurt Masala

To pair with the creamy yogurt, and spices, instead of using bone-in chicken or pieces of chicken breast, My mom used chicken thigh and wings. Chicken thigh is fattier, juicer and much more tender than chicken breast – I’m actually not a fan of chicken breast at all due to how tough and rubbery it is. Chicken thigh releases its juices during the cooking process, which leads to a deeply, beautifully flavored tandoori chicken which literally melts in your mouth – something chicken breast can’t do without extended marination times and slow cooking.

Mutton Nihari takes a long time to cook but is easy to put together.

There are lot of ready made Nihari spices available in the market. But I would not Never Never recommend. As they are full of artificial colors and preservative agents. Not a healthy approach. 🙁 You can make the Nihari powder at home by following my Nihari Masala Mix and store it in airtight container for many days.

This is a must try recipe from my Mommy. We normally make Nihari with small pieces of mutton as we prefer it over the bone-in mutton.

Note:

Preferably it must be cook on low flame, but those of you who would rather prefer a faster process can cook it in a pressure cooker though the Nihari taste wont be the same as cooked on a low flame.

So about this Mutton Nihari recipe. As you can see, there’s no layer of fat floating on top of the nihari, As many of you know, when we go out to eat it, we want the brain, marrow and floating oil on top, not a very healthy option. My mommy tried to make it just a little healthy by adding as little butter as possible without compromising on the flavor. Less fat and believe me, just as good. Or if you do like a little oil on top, when you are ready it dish it out, leave it covered on very low heat for about 5-7 minutes. Voila, the ‘little’ amount of oil will rise to the top!

Mutton Nihari with ginger and fried onion

Traditionally Nihari served with ginger, fried onion, green chilies and the hottest crisp khameeri roti or naan.

Nihari goes great with ginger, green chilies, fried onion, lemon and Khamiri Roti.

Pan Fried Fish

This Pan Fried Fish recipe is melt-in-your-mouth delicious and healthy too! Fish Fillets or Fish steaks are pan-fried, searing in the flavors and omega-3 goodness of the fish.

It is pretty simple and fast to put together and differs completely from another pan fried fish I have posted earlier. This Tangy Pan Fried Fish relies on warm flavor of ginger, sharp garlic and the grassy heat of green chillies along with a tang from vinegar and chaat masala. I pan fry the fish in virgin olive oil, you need to try fish cooked in it to know how awesome it tastes but canola or other oil will work fine too.
