Zarda Pulao are sweet rice which I love to make during special occasions.
I have taken inspiration from Nita Mehta's recipe for this dish.
Ingredients
1 cup Rice - Soaked for a few hours before cooking
3 tbsp Ghee
3-4 Cloves
3-4 Green Cardamoms
10-12 Raisins
10-12 Almonds, Blanched
10-12 Pistachios
Yellow Food Color
1 cup Sugar
1 cup Water
Method
Sugar Syrup - Prepare Sugar syrup by mixing water and sugar in a pan. Cook it till the sugar dissolves. Remove it from the flame and keep it aside.
Heat ghee in a kadhai.
Add cardamoms, cloves, almonds, pistachios and raisins. Keep some for garnishing too.
Cook for a few minutes.
Add rice and mix.
Add 1 cup water and mix in. Add little more water if required.
Add a few drops of yellow color and mix in well. You can also use saffron dissolved in milk for color.
Give rice a boil and then cook it on low flame by placing a griddle under the pan of rice as soon as it starts to boil to reduce the heat further.
Cook for 10-15 minutes till the rice is almost done and the water gets absorbed.
Add the sugar syrup to the cooked rice, mix in well and cook for a few more minutes till the rice is done.
Garnish with dry fruits and serve hot!
