This
very simple and creamy pulao, or
mixed rice, is from the Northern Indian state of Kashmir. Although it is a
frozen region high in the Himalayas, Kashmir lies along the ancient overland
trade routes between Persia and India, and the cuisine is famous for using a
huge assortment of spices and dried nuts from all over India. For this recipe,
we have to cook basmati rice with some Indian spices i.e. cardamom, cinnamon,
clove, cumin, bay leaf and steam in milk for creamy texture. You can garnish
with rose petals, tutti frutti, dry nuts which gives wonderful color and
crunchy texture to pulao. Serve this tasty and delicious pulao with gravy and
curd.
