Shahi Pulao – A royal dish

Shahi Pulao is one of the royal dishes of the mughals in India. Shahi means royal and Pulao is savoury rice dish with a medley of fresh vegetables. My version of shahi Pulao is very simple and easy to make.  You yourself try and let me know. This is best served with Shahi paneer or Malai Kofta.
