This one I tried last Sunday from my Mughlai Khana book, It turned out so delicious, only change i made was I added 1/4 cup of curd in the vegetables while cooking and garnished final dish with golden brown fried onions.. it was really a show stopper for my guests.. thanks tarlaji..

This is my fav.rice item. Cooked lot of times with little addition of fresh malai and once tried with fresh fruits cubes e.g.apple,orange,grapes,cherry this gives shahi flavour.
