Paneer “Pulav”





Paneer “Pulav” Recipe


Recipe Type: Lunch/Dinner Recipe Cuisine: Indian
Preparation Time: 5 mins    Cooking time: 15 mins     | serves: 2-3

















Pulav is a food made with combination of good quality Basmati rice and few garam masala that add to it mesmarizing smell. Pulav smells really great when you add garam masala in good quantity and veggies in relatively less quantity. I prefer to use paneer cubes in it.. just to give rich and perfect taste. Pulav goes well with any type of gravy...You must not use oil in it as it spoils it taste and pleasant smell..replace oil with pure desi ghee...pulav is a food which is always in great demand in any Indian festival, marriage or party occasion. Here is recipe for same that I love to make in my own way !
