This sumptuous yet simple rice preparation is enlivened by the addition of a peppy coriander-mint chutney and crunchy sprouts. Sprouting enhances the nutritive value of pulses and legumes, and also makes them easier to digest -- making it a highlight of the hariyali mixed sprouts pulao. To make the meal all the more healthier, fibre-rich brown rice is used, which helps lower blood glucose levels. The chutney too plays a greater role than enhancing the flavour, as it provides a significant dose of vitamins a and c plus iron too. Serve with low-fat curds or kala jamun raita.
