    Carrot Coconut Pulao - This is a one-pot tasty, healthy and fragrant rice dish made with freshly grated carrots, coconut milk, rice, and a few spices. It's a great lunch box recipe that can then be served plain or with raita made with yoghurt. It is a vegan and gluten-free dish. In this post, I included the stovetop method too.
