salted water, till each grain is separate. Drain excess liquid,
spread on a plate, too cool.
Crush chillies, ginger, garlic, in a small mixie. Add coriander,

saucepan. Add all whole spices, seeds, asafetida, crushed mixture.
Stir, add coconut,
pumpkin, peapods, half cup water. Cover and cook till pumpkin is
tender.
Add peas, soyabeans,mix and cook for a minute. Evaporate excess
moisture, take off fire.
Add spring onions, methi, mint, lemon juice, salt. Mix and add to
boiled rice. Mix well, till all
rice is evenly coated.
To heat either place covered in microwave or hot oven. Or place
inside a pressure cooker
with hot water. Serve hot with kadhi, kachumber or curds.
Note:
Use either the very tender pods, by snipping off both ends (the
snowpea variety: its skin is
very soft). Or use the deseeded pods, by stripping off the thin
inner skin, the sides, side
threads, and tips. Chop into halve if the pods are too large. Wash
and drain before using.
