Blue Ghee Rice with Pine nuts

#goldenapron23 #week17 #cookpadindia #butterflypeaflower Aromatic and flavourful Rice for all of you to relish at mealtimes on any given day. It's a beautiful twist to the simple Rice dish with the use of Butterfly Pea flower by me. There is one more added attraction. Dry fruits like Pine nuts are used by me to make it more appealing. Easy to prepare even with cooked rice or leftovers too. It's a hassle free Rice recipe that can be whipped up anytime you feel like having something different. Any side dish of your choice can be served along with this, either Vegetable or Non-vegetable. Ghee Rice is always a best choice for any party or an occasion. It's also great for Tiffin box idea too. An ideal option when it comes to Rice, it's simply irresistible.
