beets Pulao

I had this at my friend’s house and loved it and decided to make my very own version of it based on some of the flavors I know go into Pulao rice – And believe you me, this is one of the tastiest and best efforts at Pulao I’ve made – The rice was cooked to perfection as the pictures will attest (:  the spice and everything turned out just right and I was mighty pleased with this recipe as were the others who ate it – so much so I am repeating this for some of my friends who are coming over for dinner tomorrow J
Try this one out if you want to put something very colorful and aromatic out for your guests – you will blow them away, trust me!
Time taken 15 min prep time and time to cook the rice!
