Vegetable Pulao - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups basmati rice
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    1 onion, minced
    1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
    1 teaspoon cumin seeds
    1 teaspoon ground fenugreek
    1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    1 cup frozen peas
    1 carrot, minced
    1/2 cup minced green beans
    1/2 cup minced cauliflower
    3 1/2 cups vegetable broth
    1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Preparation
    Rinse and drain rice 3 times. Place rice in a bowl and pour in enough water to cover; set aside to soak.
    Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion, ginger, cumin seeds, fenugreek, and turmeric until onion just begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook and stir until onions are browned, 5 to 10 minutes more.
    Drain rice and mix into onion mixture; cook and stir until rice is dry and lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Stir peas, carrot, green beans, and cauliflower into rice mixture; pour in broth. Cover saucepan and bring liquid to a rapid boil; reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
    Remove saucepan from heat and fluff rice with a fork. Stir cilantro into rice, return lid, and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
