Jodhpur, a town in western Rajasthan, can still boast of a lot of traditional culture. Whether it is the dress of the people, celebration of festivals or the food, these traditions have carried on since a long time. Today I picked up one such traditional recipe from this place called Rajasthani Kabuli. This rice dish is made by mixing some vegetables, dahi, dry fruits etc into a fairly rich preparation. Resembling a typical Indian vegetarian pulao, it tastes slightly different from other varieties and is great for a meal on its own. It looks absolutely tempting decorated in a rice plate and served with love. Here is Rajasthani Kabuli Recipe just for you, use it and enjoy with your family and friends for a Rajasthani meal.
