Mushroom Pulav..!

This is one of my personal favorite. I like mushroom made in every style. This pulav has a very different flavor as it is cooked in coconut milk. This goes well with butter chicken, chicken kuruma or any other curries. I have taken this picture along with Chicken Kuruma. I will be uploading the Kuruma recipe after this.
