Cooking web notes

I took this recipe from my cookbook  100 rice delights,by S. Mallika Badrinath,the original recipe uses corn kennels....i am using Baby corn,and some simple changes I made to suit our taste.

INGREDIENTS:

To Grind:

METHOD:

1. Soak rice for 1/2 hour and then drain the water and fry it 1/2 tsp of ghee for 2 minutes,keep a side.
2. Cut onion to length wise and cut baby corn into bite size pieces.  
3. Pressure cook baby corn upto 3 whistles.
4. Grind all the ingredients under "to grind" table.
5. If you are cooking direct in pressure cooker,heat ghee/oil in the cooker and add the whole spices-bay leaf,cinnamon,elachi and cloves.
6. Then add the onions,fry till pinkish,then add the ground masala and fry till raw smell disappears.
7. Then add coconut milk( I used ready-made coconut milk) and cooked baby corn and bring it to boil.(Coconut milk should not be too thick or too thin,if its thick then dilute to adjust it to make 2 cups)
8. Add the rice,salt and mix well and cook covered in lowest flame,without pressure regulator for 8-10 minutes.
9. Now pulav is ready and serve hot with onion raita or raita of your choice!

I am sending this pulav to my dear friend Srivalli of cooking for all seasons ,for the event  Rice Mela!
