Coriander leaves Pulao |
ಕೊತ್ತಂಬರಿ ಸೊಪ್ಪಿನ ಪುಲಾವ್
This is an amazing recipe made by using lots of fresh coriander leaves. It is simple yet a healthy one pot meal which can be packed for school/Office as well. Coriander has multiple health benefits such as, it is a wonderful source of dietary fiber, Iron , manganese etc. It is rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin K and protein. Coriander lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL) and increases the level of good cholesterol (HDL). They say it is good for treating Alzheimer’s disease.
Coriander is a good food for digestive systems, promotes liver functions and diabetes patients as well as it can stimulate the insulin secretion and lower the blood sugar levels….. And I have used plenty of coriander leaves in this recipe. Apart from all these it contains anti-inflammatory properties and that is why it is good against inflammatory diseases such as Arthritis.
Today I recreated my own recipe (it feels very nice to do so), which I had posted earlier (on 13/9/15) on my blog. I have adopted some changes and recreated it. Not much difference in taste….. it tasted equally good (like before only), it’s like just an addition of some more vegetables…that’s it!
However this time I have taken step wise pics as well and now going to upload the same. I have written ‘(addition)’ in those places where I have made changes. If in a hurry you can skip all the ‘(addition)’ and prepare this rice and I promise you’ll not be compromising in any way.
I insist you all to definitely try this recipe at least once…And I’m sure you’ll make it time and again, Because it is , no doubt a wonderful healthy recipe. I add roasted and crushed peanuts at the end to retain that crunchiness, or else you can add it to the boiling water itself.
These ↓ are the earlier pics which I had uploaded before ie…. on 13/9/15
