Tawa Pulao

To make Tawa Pulao with leftover rice, heat oil and butter on a tawa (griddle), sauté chopped onions until golden brown, then add chopped tomatoes and cook until soft. Stir in mixed vegetables, add pulao masala and salt, then gently mix in the leftover rice until heated through. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves before serving.

Yes, Tawa Pulao is a vegetarian dish as it is made with leftover rice, mixed vegetables, and spices. It's a great option for those following a vegetarian or plant-based diet.

If you don't have pulao masala, you can substitute it with a mix of spices such as garam masala, cumin, coriander powder, and a pinch of turmeric. This will give your Tawa Pulao a similar flavor profile.

To store leftover Tawa Pulao, let it cool to room temperature, then transfer it to an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat it on the tawa or in a microwave before serving.

Tawa Pulao pairs well with a variety of side dishes such as raita (yogurt sauce), papad, or a simple salad. You can also serve it with pickles for an extra kick of flavor.
