Nice recipe Shireesha, I make this too but with lesser mint and add a few potato cubes to it.
And the snack made from tortilas also looks good and its so easy to make, I guess u can use a oven pre heated at 350F and keep chking on it till its done.Your recipe also gave me the brainwave of using tortilas to make chilli parotta recipe that I just saw here :http://arcthomas.blogspot.com/
Thank u for that ;-)
What other packed masala could be a good substitute for pulao masala?
The photo u have posted is really mouthwatering shireesha. Well, i also make this rice but a little bit different. Measurement is all the same but i put potatoes, carrot, and peas. instead of grinding the pudina i wash and put the pudina leaves directly and saute it. Its actually more healthy because it has veggies too.
nice receipee , but some modification i did , i am using ginger - garlic paster and some bitroute so colour of pulav is excellent
