Kashmiri Pulao


There are many versions of this pulao. Some use whole spices, some don't. What stands out in Kashmiri Pulao is SAFFRON and FENNEL SEEDS. I prefer to use a combination of whole spices and saffron, and not include fennel seeds, but it is upto you. This is a very simple dish, can be easily made in 20 minutes.

Serves: 3


Ingredients

1 cup white basmati rice, rinsed 3 times in cold running water and set aside
1/2 teaspoon saffron strands
1/2 cinnamon stick

Salt, about half a teaspoon
1 tablespoon ghee
1/4 cup chopped cashew nuts
1/4 apple, thinly sliced
