Succulent mushrooms with zesty spring onions, perked up with spices and powders make a delicious Khumb Pulao that will be loved by the whole family. What is so convenient about this delectable treat is that it can be prepared quite easily using the microwave oven. Once soaked for ten minutes and sautéed for a minute, the rice also cooks quickly, within fifteen minutes actually! That makes this pulao an ideal choice for busy days.
