Baby potato pulao looks flavorful and absolutely delicious. Loved the colour. Never used potatoes in pulao but now you tempted me to try. I don't need anything with it. Lovely click.
Baby potato pulao is one of my kids favorite. This looks so inviting and flavorful.
Love this delicious one pot meal. Baby potato Pulao is a hot favourite at my place . Absolutely wholesome meal.
I was not a big fan of potatoes until recently, especially in pulaos or even batata poha, but recently am enjoying the texture of it in rice thoroughly! Got to try your version dear! Looks amazing and delicious!
This is something different and looks tasty. I too, only recently adding potatoes to pulao though use them in all other dishes. Must try this version sometime Sasmita,
