It’s been pretty long since I posted a rice recipe and here I am with the most delicious, rich and tasty Cashew Pulao recipe! Few years ago, when we had just started living in Bangalore, while looking for a house, we stepped into a restaurant tired from all the roaming around. And that was the first time I had a chance to try Cashew Pulao. Ever since, I had been wanting to try it at home but not really sure why I took so long, that is until this year.
I had made Cashew Pulao quite by chance for the husband’s birthday this year. We were just back from our holiday and there was nothing in my pantry except for the staples. Still wanting to make something special at home with whatever was available, I just fried off cashews and onions. Add them to perfectly cooked basmati rice and viola, it was one of the best recipes I had ever tried.
In my hurry to make it that day, I didn’t get to click proper pictures but the good thing about it is I got to make Cashew Pulao once again. While it tastes absolutely delicious to eat it as it is, I served it with garlicky dal (Lehsuni Dal) the first time and this time, I made Pindi Chole (recipe coming up soon!) It was perfect. Moreover, this is one recipe that is sure to get you a lot of praises for literally no effort at all. It takes ~20 mins flat, that’s it. Subtle in flavors yet totally delicious too.
