    Vermicelli mixed veg pulao recipe. Rushed mornings, need for a nutritious breakfast that you can make quickly but no time. Sounds familiar? My 20 Minutes Recipes are perfect for these times. 

    Namkeen Semiya Pulao

    This namkeen Semiya or Vermicelli pulao is gluten-free, vegan and protein-packed breakfast. 2o Minutes is all you need to make this veg pulao. 

    A North Indian breakfast recipe with nutritious rice vermicelli, veggies and tofu.  The vermicelli pulao recipe is another vermicelli recipes variation. From past few weeks, I am sharing these quick 20 Minutes recipes on the blog.

    Vermicelli or Semiya makes an ideal ingredient for such recipes. You can also try Asian Vermicelli Bowl with Thai flavours or South Indian Vermicelli Upma.

    When I am planning my weekly menu, I try to include lots of these easy recipes that can be pre-prepped and stored in the fridge. For this recipe as well chopped veggies are there in the fridge. Already boiled rice vermicelli was in the fridge as well. If you are into meal prep thing this Veg Pulao takes just 10 Minutes or so.

    How to Make Vermicelli Pulao

    For making 20 Minutes vermicelli recipe totally from scratch I follow this process. Boiling Vermicelli noodles takes 5-6 minutes when Vermicelli is boiling I chop the veggies.

    And, making rest of the recipe just takes 10 Minutes. So you see! All we need is work out the process in right steps 🙂

    After I posted the previous Lemon vermicelli upma which was inspired from lemon rice, many of you asked which vermicelli noodles I have used in the recipe.

    I have used rice vermicelli noodles in that recipe, as well as this veg pulao recipe. However, if semolina/wheat noodles are what you like both these recipes can be made with wheat vermicelli or Vietnamese vermicelli too.

    For me, recipes are just a rough sketch, we need to fill the colours of flavours as per our taste.

    I have used common vegetables, carrots, peas etc, you can pick your favourite veggies and tofu adds good proteins to make it filling breakfast. Actually why breakfast, it makes a filling and healthy one-pot meal for any time of the day. You can also use paneer or chickpeas if you do not like tofu.

    Vermicelli Veg Pulao - Recipe Notes

    • Do not over boil the vermicelli as it could turn into a sticky lump.
    • Always boil the noodles and vermicelli till it is almost cooked because they will cook again for 2-3 minutes with the veggies.
    • Use the required amount of ghee or oil because it prevents the vermicelli from sticking together.
    • Also, for the better taste and nutrition ghee is what I prefer for the recipe.
    • Do not use garam masala or extra spices as it will make the vermicelli pulao bitter.
    • Keep pre-prep veggies in your refrigerator to reduce the cooking time.

    Add this recipe to your list of quick food made with a fusion twist. This vermicelli mixed veg pulao can be served with some mint and coriander green chutney or mango pickle.

    This recipe is a great way to feed your kids with nutritious veggies and tofu. This could be easily packed as travel food or a Lunchbox for kids and office.
