Tawa pulao is a famous street food from Mumbai...Tawa means a griddle and pulao is rice with various spices and veggies..In this case the spice mix used is Pav Bhaji Masala. This is a quick and flavorful rice..I had googled this recipe and found various forms of preparation..anyways I adapted Sanjeev Kapoor's recipe and has changed it to my families taste buds.

Pav bhaji masala-2 tsp
Turmeric powder-1/4 tsp
Red chili powder-1/2 tsp
Oil-1 tbsp
Salt to taste
Lemon juice-1/2 tbsp
Coriander leaves/cilantro- 1 tbsp(chopped)
