Coconutmilk Pulao Recipe | Plain Pulao With Coconutmilk | Pulao Recipes | One Pot Meals For Lunch/Lunch Box

I have shared some recipes using coconut milk like vegetable pulao, chicken gravy, coconut milk using desserts, biriyani before in blog but haven`t posted a recipe called coconut milk pulao like this before.

By mixing veggies along with coconut milk made pulao but this is completely different from that. This is a basic plain pulao recipe using thick store-bought milk and basmati rice.

I have given step by step pictures and method of cooking which helps you to try. You can even use fresh homemade coconut milk to cook this pulao if you like. This simple pulao is not only easy to cook but also tastes so good when you serve hot with gravies along with raita.

I served with khatta mutton and mint raita.

NOTE: I cook with approximate measurements so please make sure the ingredients quantities before using. As per you/your family taste use the spices.
