Description

Peas Pulao (also known as Matar Pulao) is a classic North Indian rice dish made by cooking basmati rice with green peas and whole spices like cumin, bay leaf, and cloves. It’s mildly spiced, fragrant, and delicious, with a slight sweetness from the peas that complements the earthy spices.

This dish is often prepared in households for lunchboxes, quick dinners, or festive spreads due to its ease of preparation and delightful flavor. It can be enjoyed on its own with a dollop of ghee or served alongside raita, curry, or pickle for a more elaborate meal.

Peas Pulao is also a great way to include protein-rich green peas in your diet, and it can be made in a pressure cooker, pot, or even an electric rice cooker. It’s light on the stomach and big on taste—perfect for both kids and adults.
