Prawn Pulao, learn how to make this simple and tasty prawn pulao using easy steps. Serve shrimp pulao with raita, veg or spicy non veg gravy.

Shrimp Pulao Recipe

Prawn pulao is not spicy yet flavourful main course dish. Serve this with any spicy veg or non veg gravy. Use the same preparation method to prepare pulao with chicken/mutton/egg/paneer/mushroom/gobi. I have used clay pot to prepare this flavourful pulao. You can also use pressure cooker to do the same. Mint and coriander leaves are not necessarily required to prepare this dish. They are optional ingredients.

Use basmati rice or seeraga samba rice. You can cook pulao on dum to get separate rice grains. Use small or medium sized prawns for pulao. Kids would surely love this lightly spiced pulao. This makes a great dish for potluck party or pack for kids lunch box. I have used cold pressed groundnut oil for tempering. Replace with ghee/coconut oil according to your preference.
