Chutney pulao -A very flavourful ,delicious rice pilaf made with mint and coriander paste

Chutney Pulao- is a very delicious pulao made with minimum ingredients. Rice is a staple diet of India and most of us consume it daily. There are so many rice and pulao varieties we usually make regularly . Some are delicious but take time and patience like different types of  biryani , which also needs  so many different vegetables ,spices . Some are simpel and basic like jeera rice ,khichdi and few pulao etc.

We all are facing difficulty in getting fresh vegetables now and trying to make easy and delicious food with minimum available ingredients. This chutney pulao is such an easy and delicious recipe which I am making often , specially when I want to make some thing quick or run out of vegetables.

This chutney pulao can be also be packed in lunch boxes. You just need some yogurt or raita to go with this flavorful pulao. I made chutney with coriander, mint and added few spinach leaves to add volume. If you don’t have mint or coriander then can add spinach with either mint or coriander or just make chutney with spinach and other ingredients and spices.

For making it more healthier I have added some peas and capsicum but you can add any vegetable of your choice or availability or make without any chopped vegetable.

    Thank you for your wonderful recipes. Have tried a few and all turned out great.
    In this recipe can raw mango be substituted with something else. Especially when raw mango is out of season.

      Hi Uma
      Yes you can substitute raw mangoes with lemon juice, can also add tamarind paste but may be slight change in colour
