"Flavorful and Aromatic Saudi Arabian Rice Dish topped with Fried carrots, Raisin and Toasted Nuts"
Long Long time again!!! I have been too busy with the current E-Learning thing that I hardly find any time for blogging. and got lazy too, and also couldn't find any time too. This video was taken in July and it took me 10 days to edit the video (which could actually be done in 1 day). So I have been too busy with everyone and everything around that I hardly find any time. So I am back again with a favorite dish at our home. Its an easy one pot dish (yeah for grilling you need one more) which is my easy substitute for Biriyani on Fridays on my lazy days. I got introduced to this dish by my husband who have been praising about Bukhari Rice for so long and I didn't even care to even try it when I heard him say its a bit sweetish kind of rice with loads of raisins and carrots. I was wondering rice and sweet? Naah!!! This won't work out for me. But then one day he was craving for Bukhari Rice and Finally I gave it a try. And then, Now Bukhari rice is my Favorite. I loved that sweetishness of raisins and carrots perfectly blending with the chicken and Rice.
