Kabuli Chana Pulao

Boil rice using all the whole spices mentioned just as you do for Biryani, drain and keep aside. Heat Butter or Ghee. Add Bay Leaves and the Ginger garlic paste. Saute for a minute or two before adding the Onions. Saute nicely until translucent and done. Now add Tomatoes that are finely chopped. Cook until soft and mushy.

Add Chickpeas and the other ingredients as well. If you are using the dry ones, pressure cook them but take care not to over boil. They should not be too soft. Cover and cook for around 5 to10 minutes.

Add cooked rice and mix well. Garnish and serve hot with any Raita of your choice.
