Just  the whole garam masala spices are added. what we like about making veg pulao is that its gets made quickly. if we have a food processor for chopping the veggies, then its more quick and easy. usually most of  the peoplelike the texture of the rice to be a little soft in pulao the way they are served in restaurants.we can make the veg pulao in a pressure cooker or in a pan. the rice grains have to be separate & yet well cooked in a pulao or biryani.cooking rice can be tricky at times and to get the right texture needs some experience.
