Tawa Pulao ~ Shortcut Version ~ few minute wonders
This recipe is not a detail Tawa Pulao recipe, I have taken several shortcuts today to make this Pualo in jiffy to convert left over rice to magical lunch box dish. Ideally you have to use Potato and Cauliflower vegetables in Tawa Pulao, but today I have used the vegetables that are very fast to cut and cook, these add lot of crunch too, making the Pulao special and colorful. Hope this quick recipe will be handy for you in those rush time mornings. Here is the recipe, Njoy!

- Taste and adjust any salt and seasonings as needed. Tawa Pualo is ready!
- Switch off the stove and transfer to lunch box and let it cool for couple of minutes before closing the lid.
Pack some Yogurt and a love note along with this Tawa Pualo, to cool of those spices and show off your love to your Hubby. :-)
Notes:
Always clean the mushrooms with wet towel, instead of keeping them under water. Watering the mushrooms will make them mushy in the dish.
