The meal is normally prepared parallelly to short grain or long grain rice (the basmati variety) and is sometimes served with a side vegetable dish. The dish is relatively simple to make and if you are looking for something to help you when you are a bit under the weather or just stay a little warm, then you are in the right place!<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image1006_4029f1-aa.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image1006_4029f1-aa .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:611px;width:100%;}.wp-block-kadence-column > .kt-inside-inner-col >
