Most people love rice. My husband and my both sons they also love rice and even they are so happy to take lunch as a rice in their offices. So every day I make rice for their lunch and before I used to make rice in pressure cooker twice a week only and other three days, I used to give Sandwich in their lunchboxes.
But my son requested me to make rice each day and he bought this Instant Pot for my convenience.
True be honest, Instant Pot made my life so much easier and saved my time a lot, because it helped me to make rice everyday for their office. Now they are happy and I’m happy too.
I’m not the big fan of Rice, I just eat once a while. Despite of born and brought up in a farmer’s house, still I don’t like Rice as I like Missi Roti.
How to Make Matar wale Rice?

My favorite is Roti and Paratha. From last three years, because I made so many good amendments in my diet to stay healthy. So three years ago, I started to eat missi roti in my breakfast and dinner. I eat rice, when I make green peas pulao or with so many other vegetables.
This tasty & mildly flavored rice dish is known as matar pulao or pea pulao and it is so easy to make. Not only easy to make, but also it is very tasty and healthy, because we used in this Recipe fresh peas, not frozen. Pulao doesn’t taste as good as the one with fresh peas, so I recommend to use fresh peas, it they are available near you.
You can make this pea pulao as part of a simple meal In the spring, summer and also in winter time, but I always make Rice in day time, not in dinner. It is not only simple meal, but also so easy and tasty at the same time.
