As I said earlier in one of my post ie sprouted fenugreek seeds tambuli, I’m very fond of this particular sprouted seed.

So today I tried making pulao using the sprouted fenugreek seeds/ankurit methi/molake menthyada kalu. It’s just the basic pulao recipe, easy and quick but yummy to taste with addition of sprouted methi

Apart from menthya, I have also used a small quantity of soaked whole black gram and thick coconut milk, which have added to the final yummy taste there by making this pulao more delicious.
