Prawns Pulao

I love cooking! However, I also don’t like using a lot of utensils/dishes. I love making one pot meals. They are tasty and easy to cook, and of course, to clean :)
Here’s my take on the so assumed complex prawns pulao. Please don’t be intimidated by the list of ingredients, trust me, it’s a very simple procedure.
As always, spices are as per your taste. And please keep tasting the dish so that it’s well balanced!

Kashmiri Pulao Kashmiri Pulao
#reststyle - This is a traditional Kashmiri style pulao, loaded with dry fruits and cooked in saffron infused milk. It is a very easy recipe and quite popular in many restaurants. Though it slightly differs from the usual pulao as it has minimum of spices, is slightly towards the sweeter side due to the presence of dry fruits and is non spicy. Few chopped fresh fruits, fried paneer cubes and fried onion may be used to garnish this exotic rich pulao. It can be served along with any veg. / non-veg. side dish or raita. Bethica Das -

Mushroom Porridge Mushroom Porridge
I use short grain type. There is also a certain depth of flavor infused in the ingredients and rice porridge. I’m guessing the porridge is cooked in a stock instead of water and the ingredients are cooked separately before adding into the porridge. Not forgetting the generous usage of my favorite aromatic toasted sesame oil. Chef Marie Ruth Roman -

Garam Masala - Indian spicemix Garam Masala - Indian spicemix
Garam masala is a delicious warm tasting spicemix from India, there are a few recipes I love to make that require this and although you can probably also find a ready-made-mix in a shop when in a hurry... a fresh homemade mix is definitely much more rich in flavour and taste. You will need a old coffee bean grinder or something similar if you use whole ingredients. If you need more, just use a bigger spoon and keep it in a closed (glass) container to keep it fresh Bart -
Prawns Spicy Garlic Gravy Prawns Spicy Garlic Gravy
This dish has fascinated me since my days in Hong Kong. The made this beautiful prawn gravy with steam rice on the streets of Lan tau island and i was visiting with a friend of mine. I immediately fell in love with the spicy gravy and crispy prawns. When i finished my meal, i asked for the chef and asked him to explain how he made his dish, even though his dish was a little sweet with soy sauce and some others i tried making my way with a little indian spices and it turned out amazing. Hope you like it too. Vishal Raisinghani -
