Thanks a lot Lavanya, for sharing this recipe ...she says : The inspiration for this dish was from your blog only , Kavitha's Jeera Pulao.

Ingredients needed :

• Oil
• Paneer - 1 cup diced.
• Whole garam masala
• Jeera - 1 tsp
• Presoaked Basmati rice - 1 cup (presoaked for minimum 30 mins).
• Green chilli - 1
• Mint leaves - lil
• Corriander leaves
• Potato - 1/2 of medium sized finely sliced
• Peas - 1/4 cup
• salt
• Fried onions.

Method :

In a frying pan add oil and jeera. After Jeera Splutters, add green chilli, mint leaves, corriander leaves, potato, and peas. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes.Now in a rice cooker add the cooked vegetables along with basmati rice (quantity of water should be twice the amount of Basmati rice) with required salt. Meanwhile fry the onions and paneer separately and keep it ready.When the rice gets 90% cooked, add the paneer so that it gets mixed with rice well. The crispness in the paneer too remains to certain extent and will taste nice. Finally add the fried onion to garnish.
