My hubby had a potluck in his office and he works for an American company, so he told me that he wants some Indian dish,which is a demand from his office.I wanted to make a dish where there is a touch and aroma of Indian spices with loads of veggies which attracts all health consious people. As I had to make the dish befor my hubby goes to the office,so i decided to make Vegetable Pulav which is easy.
Differance between Pulav/briyani/fried rice
Briyani-The name biryani or biriani is derived from the Persian word bery?(n) which means “fried” or “roasted”.This dish originated from the family of Middle Eastern,South Asian dishes made from a mixture of spices,rice(usually basmati), meat/vegetables and yogurt.Biryani is made by the draining method of cooking rice.In biryani the main ingredient is at the base of the vessel.Biryani uses lots of aromatic masalas. There are many kinds of biryanis such as Hydrabadi Briyani,Lucknowi briyani ect.,and each kind is tasty and unique on its own!Its a full meal by itself. Read more...
