BENGALI MISHTI PULAO RECIPE/SWEET PULAO-BENGALI RECIPES


Bengali mishti pulao recipe
Eid Mubarak to all my friends and readers ! As Ramzan special post,i thought of sharing a sweet recipe with u all.So here comes a delicious Bengali special sweet rice recipe, Misti pulao/sweet pulao.This is a very easy and flavourful traditional Bengali rice recipe.It is also called as “Holud Pulao/Basanti Pulao or yellow pulao”.U can find this dish in most of the Bengali occasions & weddings.When i wanted to prepare Bengali thali,i found that sweet pulao recipe should be present in their authentic lunch menu.So i referred few blogs and finally tried it from Deepasri’s blog.It came out very well.Actually Bengalis use Gobindo bhog,a special fragrant rice variety to make this pulao.U can also substitute with jeera rice or Basmati rice.As i basically love the combination of sweet and spicy taste,i liked this rice very much when i had it with Chanar dalna(yet to post) & Begun bhaja.I read Bengalis have this rice with spicy mutton curry as accompaniment Smile.
