Veg Pulav is a flavorful and aromatic rice dish originating from Indian cuisine. It is made by cooking basmati rice with a medley of vegetables such as carrots, peas, beans, and potatoes, infused with warming spices like cumin, cardamom, cloves, and bay leaves. Often garnished with fresh coriander and nuts like cashews, Veg Pulav is both comforting and nutritious. The dish is rich in complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber from the rice and vegetables, providing a steady source of energy. The assortment of spices not only adds vibrant flavor but also offers antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, depending on preparation, the use of ghee or excess oil can add saturated fat. By opting for minimal oil and increasing the vegetable content, Veg Pulav can be a wholesome option for a balanced meal, enjoyed as a main course or paired with yogurt, pickles, or a side salad.
