Instructions
Soaking rice
- Rinse 1 cup rice first a couple of times in water. Then soak in enough water for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, drain the rice and keep aside.
Preparing the ground paste
- When the rice is soaking, prepare this ground paste. Take the chopped ingredients - tomatoes, coriander leaves, green chilies, ginger and garlic cloves in a small chutney grinder jar.
- Without adding any water, grind to a chutney like consistency. Keep aside.
Making baby corn rice
- Heat oil in a 2 liter pressure cooker.
- Add the following spices and saute on low heat till they crackle - cumin seeds, cinnamon, tej patta (Indian bay leaf), green cardamoms, cloves and star anise (optional). Make sure not to burn the spices.
- Next add finely chopped onion. Stirring often saute the onions till they become golden on low to medium heat.
- Then add the ground paste carefully. Take care as the mixture may splutter. Stir and saute for 1 to 2 minutes on low heat.
- Next add the spice powders - turmeric powder, red chili powder and coriander powder. Stir and mix very well.
- Add sliced or chopped baby corn (100 to 150 grams baby corn). Stir and then add the rice.
- Stir and mix the rice with the rest of the ingredients.
- Add 1.5 to 2 cups of water. Add water depending on the quality of rice. I added 1.75 cups water.
- Add salt as required. Stir and mix very well gently. Check the taste of the stock and it should taste a bit salty.
- Pressure cook baby corn pulao on medium heat for 2 to 3 whistles or 8 to 10 minutes. If you add 2 cups water, then pressure cook for 3 whistles and if you add 1.5 to 1.75 then cook for 2 whistles.
- Let the pressure come down naturally on its own and then only remove the lid. Fluff the rice gently with a fork.
- Serve baby corn rice with a side raita or a veggie salad or with plain curd. It can also be packed for tiffin box.
Notes
- The recipe can be doubled or tripled.
- The amount of spices can be altered as per your taste.
- Instead of oil you can use the ghee.
