5. Now add the rice mix well with the vegetables and add the tomato puree and mix well.
6. Add coriander and mint leaves and add few drops of lemon juice.(this makes the rice grains to be separate and not sticky)
7.Close the lid of pressure cooker, keep the whistle and simmer it for 20-25 minutes and your tomato rice is ready. Garnish with coriander and mint leaves.
Note: Vegetables are optional, even without vegetables just plain tomato rice would be fine.
