Tofu Pulao
This is my first trial with tofu…I have always eaten tofu outside mostly in Thai restaurants….but I have never coordinated with Indian spices…..but when I tried, I can say it came out really good more than what I anticipated…
Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 cup Tofu (cut in chunks)
2 cup basmati rice
1 Red onion (chopped)
1 tsp Ginger & Garlic paste
1 Tomato (Chopped)
2 tablespoon oil
1 tsp Sajeera Seeds
2 tsp Coriander Powder
1 tsp turmeric Powder
1 tsp Red chili Powder
1/4 cup Coriander Leaves (chopped)
1 tsp Garam masala Powder
Salt to taste
1 cup mixed vegetables
Method
Wash the rice and drain the water.
Extract one cup of water from tomatoes.
Pour the oil into a vessel and heat.
Add onions and fry until onions turn golden brown.
Add ginger & garlic paste and turmeric powder paste and fry until you
get a nice smell.
Now pour in the tomato water + 1 cup water.
Add coriander powder, Garam Masala , salt and let boil
Add rice, Tofu and vegetables
Simmer till all the water has been absorbed and the rice is cooked.
Garnish with coriander leaves and Serve hot.
