1. 11. Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy bottom pan or kadai at
medium heat. Fry the chili, cinnamon sticks and curry leaves for
about 10 seconds each, one ingredient at a time. Set aside.
2. Add all the spices in the same oil, fry for about fifteen
seconds or till seeds splatter, making sure they do not burn.
3. Add the chopped tomatoes, fry for another minute or so, till
well incorporated in the spice mixture.     4. Add the
vegetables to the spice and tomato mixture and fry for 2
minutes, until tender.     5. Add the rice to the spice, tomato
and vegetable mixture and fry for a minute, constantly mixing.
6. Add water, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and simmer
for about 20 minutes, or until desired texture, stirring the
pilau occasionally so it does not stick to the pan.     7. Serve
the pilau hot, garnish with the fried chili, cinnamon and curry
leaves.  Member r
