    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!

    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.

    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.

  • Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    Very Veggie Box patties, the name itself rings in your ear, doesn’t it?
    You must be wondering is it a box or a patty 😉

    The unique and interesting name is because of the way the these patties are folded and made, like wrapping a box. A savory veggie filling is put inside samosa wrappers and then deep fried.

    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    So what exactly are Very Veggie Box Patties? 

    If you are not familiar with box Patties, they are a deep-fried Pakistani pastry snack usually filled with something savory. They are called box patties because their shape resembles a square box which is made by overlapping two samosa wrapper sheets. They are loved all throughout the year but they become almost a staple in every household during Ramadan on the Iftar tables.

    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe ~ Ramadan snack doesn’t get better than this!

    Ingredients in This Very Veggie Box Patties?

    Not only are these simple to make (they require nothing more than few veggies, seasoning and samosa sheets), but the stuffing possibilities are endless!

    1. Veggies: I used carrots, green peas, sweet corn, capsicum, boiled potatoes, cabbage.
    2. Olives: Green and Black Olives
    3. Seasoning: Black pepper, red Pepper flakes, salt
    4. Sauce: red chili Sauce and soy sauce
    That’s all you need to make this Very Veggie Box Patties ! Surprisingly simple ?

    How to Make this Veggie Box Patties:

    This Very Veggie Box Patties recipe is so easy to make and simple that definitely it’s worth trying.

    1. Prepare the Filling: I start off with sautéing veggies to which I add boiled green peas, potatoes, carrot, capsicum, cabbage and sweet corn and olives. Then season it with salt, black pepper, red chili flakes, soy sauce and for an extra kick red chili sauce . 

    2. Prepare the Box Patties: Then put two samosa sheets in a cross pattern, one over the other so they make a + (plus) sign. Then put some veggie filling in the middle. Fold each of the edges one by one over each creating a parcel.
    3. Frying: Then deep fry on medium flame till crispy and golden. You can fry these in advance and keep them in the oven on warm mode and serve when required.

    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    Can I play around with the filling?

    Yes, you can! In this recipe, I have used vegetables carrot, cabbage, capsicum, corn and olives. Some options that I suggest are:

    • For a meaty version use chicken or beef instead of veggies or use shredded cottage cheese (paneer) instead of meat for a vegetarian option. Just make sure that the protein in the filling is cooked through. As the box patties are only fried for a few minutes, I wouldn’t suggest to put raw meat.
    • Skip the vegetables, or add more vegetables. Such as French beans carrots, black olives, green chilies, mushrooms or broccoli. 
    • If you are using large vegetables like broccoli or carrots, make sure they are finely chopped. Pulsing them in the processor for a few seconds will work.
    • Add some taco seasoning for a Mexican twist or experiment with other spice blends. 😛
    • To give a different taste to the patties box, you can also add pizza seasoning or Oregano and Chili Flakes to the vegetable stuffing.
    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    Other variations to this Very Veggie Box Patties?

    • Healthy Alternative: These square shaped patties are filled with a flavorful veggie filling. The chewiness of the veggie stuffing and the crunchiness of the covering, is a delicious combination. There are two options, baking or frying. If you do not like oil, you can bake it in pre-heated oven for 15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Deep frying obviously gives best results but they can also be baked or air-fried.
    • Wrappers: If you do not get samosa sheets , then cut the spring roll sheets into strips. The trimmings you can fry and keep them to garnish your soups or salads.
    • Extra Crispness: For extra crispiness, roll them with Bread Crumbs before frying.
    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe
    Very Veggie Box Patties Recipe

    Can I freeze them? 

    Definitely!

    1. Grease a tray (can be plastic or a baking tray) and lay out the box patties one by one on it, making sure there is space between each one of them.
    2. Keep them in the freezer for an hour or so till they are partially frozen. Once they are frozen, carefully remove them from the tray and place them in a plastic box or  zip lock bags.
    3. To make the box patties, just take them out of the freezer, thawed and deep fry on medium heat until crispy and golden brown. 
    4. This recipe actually makes a large batch that can be easily frozen and is just the thing to have on hand for impromptu guests or if you are in the mood for a light snack to enjoy with your evening tea.

    Imagine if you will that a lamb meat patty married a corn fritter and they had babies = Lamb corn Fritters. I’m not sure why I hadn’t thought of this sooner. They are healthier than regular lamb fritters; being half meat and half veggie and they are super juicy and flavorful.

    Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

    Here’s a healthy recipe for Lamb Corn Fritters – without deep frying! Because nobody likes soggy fritters. And nobody wants to deal with a vat of oil tonight! Dinner really doesn’t get any easier than this! These Lamb Corn Fritters are so easy, you can practically whip up these juicy fritters in no time!

    These fritters are ideal to make with fresh corn cut off the cob, but can be made with canned or frozen corn. Serve for breakfast, lunch, dinner!

    Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe
    Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

    What you need to make really great, Lamb Corn Fritters

    Here’s what you need to make these Lamb Corn fritters:

    Ground Lamb: I like to grind my lamb at a ratio of about 80% lean. I feel this brings out the most flavor. The best places to buy fresh ground lamb is your local butcher shop. If you want to use lamb, ask your butcher to grind it for you or, to make your own ground lamb, start with a lean cut. You can also use lean ground beef or turkey instead.
    Corn: as noted above, fresh is better for both flavor and crispiness. But canned and frozen work too, you just need to make an effort to dry it out as much as you can.
    Egg: egg to bind the meat and corns. It will help to get mince to stick together better.
    Ricotta Cheese: – for a good hit of savory flavor AND to make the fritters extra juicy and flavorful!
    Green Masala: Green onion, green chilies and coriander – for a hit of freshness.
    Seasoning: salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes (my fav)
    Olive oil: to sauté

    Lamb Corn Fritters Recipe

    How to make Lamb Corn Fritters

    And here’s how to make them.

    1. Mixing: Place lamb mince and corn in a bowl. Then add 1 lb fresh ground lamb. 1 egg, finely sliced green chilies, green onions, fresh coriander, salt, black pepper, red pepper and 1 cup ricotta cheese. Mix until well combined. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
    2. Cooking: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 2 Tbsp. extra light olive oil. Place a heaping tablespoon of the mixture into your hand and form a oval or round shaped patty about 1/3-inch thick. Cook over medium heat uncovered for 5-7 minutes, then flip, cover and cook for another 5 minutes more or until meat cooked through. Add more oil to the pan as needed for subsequent batches.
    3. The fritters take a good 12-15 minutes to cook so they’re golden on the outside and for the raw meat to cook through (remember, these are fritters so they are not very thick).
    4. Pro Tip: You can use an ice cream scooper with a lever to scoop the batter into the pan. Then flatten using a greased spatula! But don’t crowd the skillet, adding more oil to pan if required.

    How to serve corn fritters

    Corn fritters is one of those rare foods that truly spans the breakfast-lunch-dinner spectrum! Here’s how to serve it.

    Though having suggested those various ways to serve it, the reality is that you will want to snatch them fresh off the stove, before you’ve even had a chance to plate them up properly. And that’s totally ok too! – Bushra

    This meatball pizza, made with a secret sauce, mozzarella cheese, and the surprise element of juicy chicken meatballs piled atop pizza dough, takes homemade pizza to a whole new and indulgent level. That’s better than takeout.

    Chewy crust, spicy sauce, meatballs and plenty of melted cheese? Ummmm…. yes, please.

    Pizza is always a winner in our house and cheesy meatballs are definitely comfort food around here, so we threw together a super easy, super cheesy meatball pizza. Make a big batch of meatballs and freeze in portions along with this fresh pizza dough recipe so you’ll have meatball pizzas ready to go when you want them.

    The Best Meatball Pizza Recipe

    You can use frozen meatballs to save on time but you will have to adjust points accordingly, I prefer to make my own and I added a little pizza flare to mine.

    How do you make Meatball Pizza?

    1. A pizza pan is rubbed with a little bit of oil. Pizza dough is spread into the pan, poked with a fork. Then spread prepared sauce over it.

    Spread pizza sauce over the dough

    2. The topping is assembled by cooking the meatballs in a hot pan.

    Where is the best place to buy Pizza dough?

    1. Most markets have some sort of pizza dough that they sell.  You’ll probably be able to find the kind of pizza dough in the can (not my favorite), and some will offer it in a little plastic baggie (probably a better product and likely more fresh).
    2. I do have a tip for the best place to buy pizza dough.  Most pizza restaurants will likely be willing to sell you a ball of their pizza dough.  Just ask!  That’s going to be your best bet for good pizza dough!
    3.  You can also make your own. I have good recipe for Easy Pizza Dough.

    What are the best toppings for pizza?

    1. If you’re a meat lover, you’ll most likely enjoy some sort of meat lover’s pizza like this Meatball Pizza!  BBQ Chicken Pizza is my another favorite. 
    2. And my personal choice for pizza topping is Bell Peppers, Olives and Pineapple.  Chicken Chunks, Sausage are also popular pizza toppings ( but I don’t like it that much).
    3. Some people like to add olives, corn, goat cheese, spinach and more.  The possibilities are endless!

    It’s pretty likely that everyone in your family will enjoy this Meatball Pizza.  It’s a nice, quick and easy dinner for those nights that are crazy!
