PEAS PULAO/LUNCH BOX IDEA/RICE VARIETIES

DSC02520I always love to make Peas Pulao for lunch box or dinner.It is filling and easy to make with minimal ingredients.I prefer to keep the recipe simple and my daughter is fond of this pulao very much.It is so flavourful that you might end up eating more.Tastes great with any raita or gravy,it is a tasty solution f making the kids eat.Some add onions,I have not added in this recipe.It tastes equally good without onion too.Try out this simple and awesome recipe of the classic pulao recipe Peas Pulao.
