Tavaa Pulao
#riceisthebest #streetfoodofindia
Tavaa Pulao is a famous street food from Mumbai. Originally it was prepared using paav bhaaji and rice cooked with some whole spices and mixed on a huge tavaa with some butter. You could find this on the streets of certain areas in Mumbai.
But of late, the method of preparing this pulao has changed. The tavaa used by these vendors is quite thick and huge too. They add a lot of butter and directly cook the vegetables on it. The vegetables are kept a little crisp and rice and spice powders are then added to it. I had observed a vendor doing this at an eatery.
I have made this pulao exactly on these lines, and the result was delicious! I have served some cooling boondi raita along with it, but you can even serve it with some salad! Again, you can add vegetables of your choice. I have added all three coloured bell peppers just to increase the health quotient of this dish.
