Today am posting a delicious, flavoursome rich and definitely an aromatic rice dish prepared with a spiced mint leaves paste along with already boiled and pan fried eggs. An easy pulao to dish out especially for weekend lunch or weeknight dinner. Served along with a simple raita or a delicious gourmet gravy, trust me this minty egg pulao will definitely please anyone's tastebuds easily. Since i cooked this pulao in pressure cooker, you can dish out this flavourful pulao in an ease even if you have sudden guests at home.
Am running this week's blogging marathon with One ingredient 3 ways as theme, after two different dishes, this ultimate Mint egg pulao is my final post for this week's theme. Easy to make, you can prepare this pulao easily with less efforts. A prefect meal to pack in anyone's lunch box as well, not to forget that this pulao is a real feast for Eggetarians.
