Notes on matar pulao recipe. 1. Choose a good quality, aged rice to get perfectly cooked rice. 2. Wash long-grained rice (basmati) under running water or in a bowl 2-3 times until the water runs clear and transfer to a deep bowl. Washing helps to remove the extra starch from the rice. 3. Soak the rice in enough water in a deep bowl for 30 minutes. Soaking is very important as it reduced the cooking time of rice. The rice grain will absorb moisture and you’ll be less likely to have broken grain while cooking. 4. Mix well and pressure cook for 2 whistles. Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid. After 2 whistles, you can decide if it requires more or less time as the number of whistles depends on the flame and the litre of the pressure cooker.
