The pulao is made with daliya, moong sprouts and seasoned with pure ghee and fresh mint leaves. Daliya or bulgar wheat is a good source of fibre, protein, iron and Vitamin B6. Moong sprouts are high on protein, low in fat and have high fibre content. Made with minimum ingredients, this pulao is ridiculously easy to prepare. This mouth watering pulao makes a complete meal for your breakfast as it is so self contained in terms of flavours and ingredients.
