    Pakistani Punjabi/Karachi Style Yakhni Pulao (Chicken Stock Pila,After so many try outs I finally came with the right fusion for this recipe. Pulao is one of Punjabi people’s favorite dish. Its a must serve on all occasions in Pakistan’s Punjab province. If you don’t want the Karachi style you can omit tomatoes, anise seeds and fresh mint.,Searching for simple recipe & found this. This really come up with good one.,It was awesome the flavors in this pulao were too good. The only thing I did different was instead of adding salt used 2 chicken cubes and it added extra yakhni flavor to it.
