Rare Rice Pulao Recipes From India

Indians just love to eat rice. Whether you are in the North or South, East or West of the country, you can always count on finding some delicious pulao recipes. Indian rice recipes are known for their different flavours. Some of these rice pulao recipes are extravagant like the biryanis and shahi pulaos.
