Prawn Pulao | Jinga Pulao Recipe

Easy Prawn Pulao / Pilaf  is a great dish for entertaining.Most of us end up making a Mutton or Chicken Biryani but i say make a change and try making an Aromatic Prawn Pulao instead.

Adding fried onions and dry fruits on top of the dish completes it and makes it looks fabulous.

Do try this Wonderful Prawn Rice some day.
