Cabbage Pulav / Muttaikose Pulao
Pulaos are famous north indian rice dishes. Muttaicose is one of our fav Vegetables. At any time they will be available at my fridge. I got this recipe from my Mother-in law and tried for a small party. It was a super hit. A mild rice with any gravy of veg or non-veg would be a best combination for this. My rice got little mashed up coz of excess water added while cooking.
