Here in UAE we get only one telugu channel.Back home when i went last saw many telugu channels airing cooking programs.I hardly used to watch Gemini and that is the only channel which i am forced to watch here.Every day at 10.30 local time they air a cooking program.I always jot down the recipes and do them on fridays.Last friday i did this pulao.This pulao is a mixture of mint and coriender leaves along with sabut masala.I served it with dhaniya chicken and mint raita.
