Pulao Masala Powder that is so aromatic and flavourful. I wanted to try the Pulao Masala Powder from scratch when I was trying Aloo bhindi pulao. I haven’t tasted any store bought pulao masala mix so had no clue of the recipe and ingredients used. When I was browsing came across the pack of MTR pulao masala powder in Amazon , saw the ingredients then tried this spice mix. Having tried many varieties of spice powders now I have an idea of the measurement. I should say this turmed out soo good. Not only for pulao’s you can use it for curries, gravies, masala etc.
