- Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade for later.
- To the rest of the marinade, add the lemon juice, gram flour and orange food colour and whisk until fully combined.
- Add the boiled potatoes, tomatoes, capsicum and onion and mix well.
- Thread the vegetables and potatoes onto wooden skewers (makes 18).
- In a non-stick griddle with the cooking oil, fry the skewers over medium heat on all sides until golden brown.
- Melt the ghee in a pot, then add the cinnamon stick, cloves, peppercorns and cumin seeds and mix.
- Add the sliced onion and fry until lightly golden.
- Add the green chillies, ginger-garlic paste, the reserved 1/4 cup marinade, and cook for 1–2 minutes. Add the fresh coriander and mix.
- Add the water and chicken cube, mix and bring to a boil.
- Add the soaked rice and mix.
- Add 1/2 tbsp pink salt, mix, and cook on high heat until the water reduces (3–4 minutes). Cover tightly and steam on low heat for 10–12 minutes.
- Place the pulao and the skewers on a serving platter, smoke with charcoal for 2 minutes, and serve.
