I always love one pot dish for those lazy days.
Pulaos are favourites in my family and I make them with different masalas and veggies and greens.
It is the most efficient way to make your children and yourself to eat veggies and greens.
Add it with some raita , makes a complete, comfort meal.
Good for packed lunches as well, topped up with some fruit or yogurt.
My children love them for their packed lunches.
