There are different ways of preparing Peas Pulao. I usually prepare peas pulao in pressure cooker. Even it can be prepared by cooking rice separately and mixing with the peas pulao malasa. Here, i have shared a recipe of cooking in pressure cooker. Using fresh peas gives nice aroma to the pulao. One who cant find fresh peas can use frozen peas. Pea pulao can be served along with raitha or any vegetable koot or khurma.
