KASHMIRI PULAO~

 

Once I had   tasted this at restaurant, it was so good and tasted unique. I liked it very much then I tried this recipe and it came perfect. Now it became regular dish and our favorite. Kashmiri pulao is delight, flavorful, healthy with all fruits, veggies and nuts..

 

INGREDIENTS

2 cups basmati rice
Onion
5-6 Green chilly
Carrot
Peas
Cashew
Raisins (dry grapes)
Pomegranate seeds
1 inch Cinnamon
2-3 clove
2 cardamom
Cumin
Saffron
Ghee/oil

PROCEDURE

 

 

• Cook the basmati rice and spread it in large plate to avoid sticking.

• Boil the veggies of your choice (avoid potato) and set aside. I used only carrot and peas.

 

 

• Heat skillet, add 1tbsp ghee and 2 tbsp. oil, then roast cashew and raisins and keep aside.

• In same pan add all the spices, cumin seeds, green chili and sauté it.

• Now add onion and fry till it becomes transparent.

• Add boiled veggies and sauté for 3-4 minutes.

 

 

• Add salt as required.

• Now add cooked rice, saffron and mix well. Finally add pomegranate seeds, the original recipes says to add 2 - 3 tbsp. of cream at this point to make it rich. I didn't, but it still came out perfect.

 

 

Kashmiri pulao goes well with any kind of gravy or raita. Am sure you  all like this recipe….:)
