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.
