This dish is a delicious combination of rice, chickpeas, with vegetables and of course spices. This is a great, hearty, and healthy meal. This is a one dish and one pot meal.
This recipe will serve 3.
- 1 cup rice (I use basmati rice)
- 15oz chickpeas/chola/garbanzo/kabule chana canned or cooked
- 2 tomatoes medium size chopped will make about 1-1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
- 1 potato medium size peeled and cubes bite size pieces will make about 3/4 cup
- 6 oz spinach chopped frozen or 3 cups of chopped fresh spinach
- 1 cup bell pepper cubed in bite size pieces
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds/jeera
- 1/8 teaspoon asafetida/hing
- 1 bay leafs/tajpat
- 1 tablespoon ginger finely shredded
- 1 green chili finely chopped
- 1-1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric/haldi
- 1/2 teaspoon mango powder/amchoor
- 1/4 teaspoon garam masala
- 1-1/2 cups water
Method
- Wash and soak the rice in about 2 cups of water at least for 10 minutes.
- Drain the liquid out of the can of chickpeas and wash the chickpeas well.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan. Test the heat by adding one cumin seed to the oil; if seed cracks right away oil is ready.
- Add cumin seeds as seeds crack add the ginger, green chili, and turmeric stir for few seconds.
- Add tomatoes and salt cook until tomatoes are tender, about 2 minutes.
- Add chickpeas and potatoes after it comes to boil cover the pen and let it cook for about 8 minutes over medium low heat, stir occasionally.
- Add rice, spinach, bell pepper and water. Mix and bring it to boil. Cover the pan and let it cook for about 12-15 minutes over low heat. Don’t stir the rice in between they will get mushy check the rice in about 12 minutes. Cook Pulav until the rice is tender and the water has evaporated.
- When Pulav is ready add mango powder and garam masala mix gently.
- Serve alone or with side of yogurt or pickle if you want to spice it up more.
Enjoy!

Hello Manjula, I just wanted to thank you because this recipe helps to impress my Husband. I have a query do i have to add amchor in this or not??
Anika, your choice
I really swear that you tell really fascinating recipe and it is better than my secret Butter Masala Chicken. Good to be here and to gather this marvelous article which is perfectly amazing.
I personally like your post; you have shared good insights and experiences. Keep it up.

hi, before the rice goes into the saucepan with the other ingredients, does it have to be cooked first?
I have added a new type of biryani to my recipes since before I landed on this page I was aware of chicken and vegetable biryani. I found the right page at the right time since it is the festive season cannot end without trying new delicacies such as Chole biriyani. I have bookmarked this site so that I access the recipe whenever I need it. Thanks for posting an amazing recipe.
Thank you
I am pretty sure about this information you shared because its really helpful for everyone.
Wanted to say how wonderful this turned out. Only thing I did different was I used fresh green beans instead of spinach because I thought I had some spinach but didn’t. Turned out amazingly! What needful flavor combinations. I used coconut oil as my oil too.
Sandra, good to hear that, now you have your own recipe and taste amazing.
This is really a great stuff for sharing. Keep it up .Thanks for sharing.
Great post! Interesting information and cute writing style.
It is just what I was looking for and quite thorough as well. Thanks for posting this, I saw a couple other similar posts but yours was the best so far. The ideas are strongly pointed out and clearly emphasized.
Winchester, Thank you
Thanks for sharing .
Hi,
In you recipe Chickpea Pulav u have said to
5.Add tomatoes and salt cook until tomatoes are tender, about 2 minutes.
6.Add chickpeas and potatoes after it comes to boil cover the pen and let it cook for about 8 minutes over medium low heat, stir occasionally.
I assume since u are talking about boiling & cooking for 8 minutes there is water involved. U haven’t mentioned how much water?
Nayana, Sorry there is a mistake it should be about 6 minutes not 8 minutes, and do not add any water.
Tried this amazing recipe today and wanted to let you know that my girls’ lunch box came empty and there was no demand for snack! Been your ardent fan and follower for sometime now. Hope to see more of these yummilicous recipies. Thank you !
So far, everything I’ve cooked has been wonderfull! I love that you do vegan recipes. If at all possible, I’d appreciate oil substitutions when it’s doable. I don’t cook with oil. I have a few things I use. Just wondering what you would do.
Do you avoid using all kind of oils?
If you want to make less fat meal and dislike an idea or using ghee or vegetable/sunflower oil, you can use olive or coconut oil.
Hello Manjula – thank you very much — I now know how to cook.
I see that you do not use onion/garlic at all in your recipes. Can you comment please?
Thanks again!
She answered the question in FAQ:
Q: Why don’t any of the recipes have onion or garlic?
A: This is a personal preference.

Hello
Your recipe doesn’t state each time you add water but you mention ‘bringing to the boil’ twice and when is the dish meant to be on high heat too?
Thanks
Could I check with you, can I freeze extra portions of this recipe for use another time?
Thank you for your help.
Biryani is delicious x
Karen Lindsay,
You can
Hi Manjula
Thank you for this recipe.
Hing is listed in the ingredients, but when do I add it? 🙂
– Ali
Ali,
Add hing same time when adding cumin seeds.
I don’t cook with proceeded foods…do i cook my dry chickpeas first then continue with recipe , being that canned beans are already cooked?
Barbara,
Yes cook the chick peas first then continue with recipe.
Hi,
I am a veggie who loves cooking. I loved the recipes you have shared and this one is really tempting. Surely gonna try this at home. Once I am away from home I need these life savior for me. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Thanks
Rajeev
Thanks for your recipe and please let me know when to add hing.
Thanks
Hema
Hemamalini,
Just after you add cumin seeds to the oil
I would like to make this recipe with brown basmati rice instead of white, and the difference in cooking time is about 30 more minutes for brown. Any thoughts on how to modify this recipe accordingly or if I need to at all? I’m just afraid that if I put the rice in as instructed, everything else in the pot will be mush by the time the rice is done. Any help will be appreciated!
Recipe doesn’t tell when to add the turmeric or amchoor…
McGee,
For amchoor check the step 8, and yes I forgot to mention about turmeric thank you for pointing it out I will correct the recipe, you should add turmeric when you are adding ginger at step 4.
To marsha: could there be a problem with your browser? I was able to print the recipe on one page with no problem at all, and look forward to trying the pulav tonight. Thank you, Manula – this recipe looks easy and delicious!
Why can’t you print out this recipe? Most have a way to print them. I also can’t understand her listening to the video. Very frustrating since her written recipe doesn’t correspond with everything I think she is saying.
