Shrimp Pulao
Shrimp is one of my favorite foods and I love the Pulao's we can make out of Shrimp as the rice gets flooded with the Aroma from the Shrimp and there is none as tastier as that. This recipe is something I employ when I want to eat some good food without investing a lot of time preparing it. Shrimp cooks very quickly and hence the prerequisite for the Pulao is very easy and quick, I use the Instapot or the Pressure cooker and that makes this recipe a lightening fast one to prepare without compromising on the taste of the dish.
This should be something you should definitely try out during your weekdays , you should not do away with good food just because you had a rough and busy day at work .
