I usually make Gujarati masala bhaat at home for dinner along with Gujarati kadhi. Kadhi and masala bhaat go really well together. Here, we haven’t used excessive quantity of masala, yet you can changed the quantity of masalas according to your preference.

This is a warm and moderately spiced rice dish that is ideal for a cold, rainy day! Gujarati masala bhaat is a very indigenous, gujarati version of the ubiquitous vegetable pulao, which gets a very luscious aroma and taste due to the cooking together of rice, veggies and ghee. Feel free to use any vegetables of your choice. However, remember not to keep stirring often, to avoid the rice grains from crumbling. Use hot water to speed-up the cooking process.

As far as one knows, the word ''fastens'' means to fix or to attach an object to another object. It does NOT mean to hasten or to speedup as used in this recipe...quicken is the word to be used to imply increase speed...

A good variation of rice.. Masala bhaat has a perfect taste and spice.. The crunch that veggies gives, makes it even more mouth-watering..
