Vegetable Mint Pulao

Mint has always been one interesting herb for me. The aroma, the taste, and the benefits always fascinated me. Adding mint to the usual Vegetable Pulao uplifted the whole level of a regular Pulao recipe. #vegetablepulao #vegetarian #pulao #veganrecipes #ricerecipes #indianrecipes #easyrecipes
