Hi Everyone!!!!!!!!!
Today we are going to see how to make Wheat Pulao.It is one of my very favourite and healthy recipe.It is very easy to make and that too i make this in Sambha Broken Wheat which is really very healthy. You can get Sambha broken wheat in all departmental stores.Generally wheat is considered to be a very good source of cereal in our country.Again Sambha wheat has lots and lots of health benefits like,
*Best for people with diabetes and high sugar levels.
*Helps to reduce obesity.
*Good alternative for rice when you are in special diet.
*Helps for cholestrol reduction.
*Good to develop healthy bones
*Digestion is very easy when you eat this.
*Reduces constipation and gastric trouble because of high fibre content.
*Best for a light breakfast,lunch or a dinner.
So you can include this in your regular family diet.
I tasted this Wheat Pulao in my favourite Hotel Mahamudra,Mylapore,Chennai.They serve this dish excellently.I went and asked the chef regarding this and i remember his name is Mr.Ragupathy or Ragu.I exactly dont remember his name but he is the one who makes this dish.He is a very good chef.I got the menu from him but made slight changes to it according to my family intrests.
