How to make the Sweet corn Pulao Recipe
Sweet Corn Pulao is an easy pulao recipe next to the Peas Pulao and Jeera Pulao. If I am in a hurry or lazy to prepare any South Indian traditional kuzhambu varieties, then I go for preparing the Pulao recipes. Since this is mild spicy, any kind of spicy side dish like spicy meal maker gravy goes very well with this pulao. I am planning to try more different variety of Pulao as it is easy to prepare one pot meal and tastes great.
