Re: Food Combination: Pulao

My all time favourite combo is chicken pulao rice, palak gosht, dahi pakoriyan and salad, always tastes so good and I just love this combo. Koftay ande are also nice with chicken pulao rice but palak gosht just hits the spot for me!

Bakray ke gosht ka pulaao and zarda mix. Three parts pulaao, one part zarda. Heavenly combo

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Pulao, and Chapli kabab
Pulao, Shami Kabab

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

I will take that zarda plate, please. Thank you. :chai:

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Actually mix Zarda with Pulao (in the ratio TLK mentioned) its heavenly combination.

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Will have to try. I thought it was only Gugraatis who mixed sweet with saalan. :slight_smile:

Pilao with chapli kabab and aloo gosht, raita/salad. Sigh. I love pilao.

Maybe it’s more common in them, but UPians do that too. My dad’s favourite meal during summer was Arhar kee Daal and Chawal with a slice of mango on the side. We also eat Aam kee meethi chutney with Daal chawal (just like people eat achar). Also I think kheer/gajar halwa with paratha/poori is a known breakfast in pakistan (not to mention your regular halwa poori breakfast)

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

I like aam ki meeThi chaTney.

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Minor question - Is it pilao, palao or pulao ?

Also, are pulao and Spanish paella [pronounced pa-ae-aah], cousins ? :hmmm:

What about pilaf ?

This articles kind of links them all.

Paella is not very similar to pulao at all, other than the fact that they are both rice dishes

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Raita and a shami kabab will do.

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

It’s Pilau.

I like chicken pilau with dahi pakoree and salad. This is my favourite meal.

My dad mixes his pilau with zarda, I thought this was only done by people from the Pind.

Oh its pulao, not pilao

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

Is that not like mutanjan?

I’ve never tried but I totally understand mixing savory and sweet in one dish…such as halwa poori and chanay…or a meethi chutney with salans. I actually like mixing salty and sweet with some things.

Re: Food Combination: Pulao

I love pulao and zarda mix now :frowning:
