Cauliflower and Peas pulao recipe
Phoolgobi and Matar pulav recipe
Pulav is vegetarian main course recipe. It is a party recipe. I often make pulao at home with different types of vegetables to give variety. Its an instant recipe.
Pulav are very easy to make.I often make pulao at home on holidays and simply serve it with raita,coriander chutney,or pappad(roasted or deep fried).
On occasions also I make pulao(paneer pulao,cauliflower and tomato pulao,mix veg pulao, tahri)and serve it with paneer butter masala,palak paneer,chanadal,dum aloo along with raita,salad,pappad.As for me,being my personal favourite, i can enjoy them without a slightest need of a side dish.
