Directions
Pilau or Pulao (Fragrant Rice),A fragrant layered rice mixture to serve with the meal. From lcbo.ca,This was great! I’m new at cooking Indian food and was a little apprehensive of the process, but I didn’t have to worry, because it was perfect . . . fragrant, fluffy and fabulous! Thanks for sharing. UPDATE 8/31: Prepared this dish again last night and it did not disappoint. Made it to go with Recipe #247639 . . . DH thought he was back in India again! Love this cooking method! Thanks again, Evelyn.,Excellent recipe! I simply love it. The seasonings are wonderful together. I had to use 1 tsp of dried mint as fresh isn’t available just before Christmas but everything else was by the recipe. It turned out fluffy and tender and the fragrance was to die for. I served it with fish but it would be a grand match with chicken or lamb or in a vegetarian meal. Thanks ev for a most enjoyable dish.
