Hi friends, I was prepared this pulao somedays back but couldn't post it till yesterday. N now its getting time to reach you, which is very simple and delicious pulao and its very need for one who s craze in street food or spicy food from outside... N that can be prepared on our home. I really enjoyed the pulao.
Little About Tawa Pulao
Tawa pulao is a very popular dish in India and especially as street food. The dish is made of saute rice with large number of vegetables and spices. The spice is pav bhaji masala to the rice is highlight and enhance the taste of the pulao which is consists of many spices. The tawa pulao is served hot and garnished with cilantro leaves. The whole process of cooking in a hot tawa thats why we called it as Tawa Pulao. Well, I have never been to Mumbai nor tasted the pulao but I heard the pulao in TV shows and got inspired to try on my hands and referred many sites to do it and I proceed it with some alterations. And which is very suits for lunch box too.
