Corn Peas Pulao with (Almond - Cashew) Powder

Corn Peas Pulao(Almond-Cashew Powder)

This is an easy pulav with corn and peas. I added Almond - cashew powder to this pulao ,and this gave a richer taste to this rice. 
Usually  raita's are served as side dish for any pulav's but we had with crispy onion cabbage pakoda's and it was great..
I am too lazy to prepare  coconut milk and hence I went along with milk.(You can add coconut milk).
