Mushroom Pulao | Peas and Mushroom Pulao | How to make Mushroom Pulav | Easy Pulao Recipes | Mushroom Recipes | Easy Lunch Box Recipes

I love mushrooms always. But somehow I have not prepared this mushroom pulao and kept postponing as I love to eat the mushrooms in gravy with blend of masalas than in biryani or in pulaos. Finally one fine Saturday tried this mushroom pulao along with peas and it came out good. Since this is mild in spiciness, my kids loved a lot. Serve it with Brinjal raita or Vegetable Raita. I served it with simple onion raita.

Stuffed Mushrooms

I wanted to try this recipe, for a very long time, but somehow keep on postponing it. When our blogger friend, Shama, announced, the event, with mushrooms, I decided, I should try this one for sure and today evening, somehow I managed to prepare this and was in a hurry to take the photos, as it started raining here heavily and I felt the photos were not as satisfying as I thought. Soon would be posting another set of photos. I tasted stuffed mushrooms, when I went out for a office dinner and that was the first time and fell in love with it. It is very easy and tastes awesome. All stuffed mushrooms vanished within 5 minutes. Here we go to the recipe...
