Preparation:
Peel, cut the end and grate the yellow squash. Keep aside.
Wash and soak rice in plenty of water until all the other things are made ready.
Heat oil in a pan and add all the other ingredients except rice and sauté well for some time. Then remove the water from the soaked rice and slowly add to the pan. Stir well.
If using pressure pan, add water (3 cups) directly to the pan, adjust salt and leave it on the flame until 3 whistles. Then turn off the flame and let the pressure go out. Mix well.
If using electric rice cooker, then add the contents of the pan to it, adjust salt and let it cook. When done, mix the rice well.
Enjoy the steaming hot rice with some potato chips or raita or just plain yogurt.
