CRACKED WHEAT PULAO


A delicious treat for those who are on a strict diet. Cracked wheat(or bulgur wheat) pulao is made the same way as the normal rice pulao. Check my procedure and never think you are on a diet. I made this both with cracked wheat and bulgur wheat and the pulao with bulgur wheat is more tastier and somewhat similar to rice pulao. Give it a try.
INGREDIENTS
Bulgur wheat                          1 cup
Water                                      3 cups
Veggies                                  1/2 cup(your choice)
Whole gram masala                cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, shahjeera, bay leaf
Oil                                          2 Tsp
Onions                                    1/4 cup chopped
Salt                                          to taste
Green chilies                           2-3
PROCEDURE
I prefer a rice cooker for making the pulao as the bulgur wheat takes longer time to cook on open flame.
First of all heat the oil in a pan and add the whole gram masala, onion.
Cook the onions for a minute and then add the finely chopped veggies. Add the salt, cover and cook for a minute.
Transfer the whole thing into a electric rice cooker pan. Add the bulgur wheat and water.
Cook till it is done.
Serve with any raita.
