Vegetable pulao is mild spice flavor, colorful and delicious Indian rice. I love restaurant vegetable pulao, the rice and
vegetables will looking so attractive and tempting. Mostly we used to prepare
pressure cooker pulao or biryani to get the work ease at busy time at the same
time to taste rich and flavorful pulao. Kids will love the pulao much as it has colorful look, their favorite vegetable not much spices, so its perfect for
them and even lunch box too…
Pulao is easy to make in pressure
cooker and soon I plan to make the pulao in open pot too… Pulao with gobi 65 or broccoli 65 are perfect combination.
