This rice recipe is a fusion of both North and South Indian. In North India Moti pulao is very popular dish which is a Awadhi cuisine. They make pearls or motis from meat or paneer. In South India Peanut rice is also a very popular dish. I have just mix both of them and prepare a very delicious recipe.
The pearls are made out of the mixture of chickpeas, spinach and cottage cheese. All the three are good sauces of protein also.
