Happy Diwali to all my friends Safe Diwali to all...... Today Diwali special rice recipe "Dry Fruit Phool Makhani rice" recipe is a aromatic, mild and Sweet Rice Recipe. This is one of the easiest pulao recipes to make, color full and rich with plenty of dry fruits. This rice not only looks beautiful, but it is contain with savory flavors. Basmati rice cooked with spices and dry fruits. This pulao is fit for a king, fit to be in the kitchen of kings and queens and fit for everyone out there. Its sweet from the crunch of the fruits, mildly spiced and rich from those ghee roasted cashew bits. Is that enough reason for you to try this dish atleast once. Yes, try it once and you will be hooked to it or else you would want to try it atleast once every month, a change from the regular spicy and masala-y biryanis. Atleast that's what has happened in our case. I love to try new dishes much to the family. My brother and sister and my sister son want new dishes so I always sticks to the tried and tested recipes. It had naans, tandoori rotis, stuffed phulkas and a heavily buttered Kashmiri naan which was totally ignored by everyone. It sat there beautifully studded with red and green tutti frutties and that made me grab the naan. I totally loved it ~ the slight hint of sweetness worked out great for me and since then its been Kashmiri naan for me. But Kashmiri pilaf (pulao) has never made it to my plate till date. One day my brother (my aunty son) will came to my home he ask to I want sweet pilaf (pulao) so you can prepare to me. But I don't know how to prepare that sweet pulao. My want to "ooty". With college friends, there all are went to a street side hotel they all eat this tasty recipe. Then he came here, he told to me Neha I eat some taste and so sweet delicious pilaf (pulao), I eat in "ooty " so please once u can prepare this recipe to he asked. But how I don't know to prepare this recipe. K I will tried to you. Whenever I imagined Kashmiri pilaf (pulao), all I got was an overdose of sweetness. And so when the question of weekend lunch was thrown during the weekday dinner, I thought of giving this a go mainly because I was in control of what went into the pressure cooker. I browsed for recipes but was not satisfied with what came up and hence went by my instincts. It came out good and I am sure I will be making this often. I made a simple fruit's and dry fruits pilaf (pulao) to go with it and the two teamed up great. So, I start with Kashmiri pilaf (Pulao) with fruit – enriched with dried nuts, milk and strong spice flavors, and added with the sweetness of fresh fruit makes this pilaf (pulao) very different from any other rice preparation. When you order it out at the restaurants, it is mostly served with tinned pineapple, but at home you can use any seasonal fruit like apples, grapes, even oranges, peaches and even strawberries and pomegranate. Just make sure the fruit is sweet and complements the flavor of the spices and saffron. So today I used fruits and dry friuts, and phoolmakhani also used to this kashmiri pilaf (pulao). Its some different taste and be good. So lets see the process to how to prepare this Phool Makhani Fruit Pilaf (Pulao).
