Cauliflower Pulao Recipe

Enjoy cauliflower pulao made in iron wok for health benefits & the taste! Made with fried onions & bunch of Indian spices, this pulao is a keeper. 

I bought my iron wok all the way from  India and have recently started enjoying cooking in it. The health benefits of iron wok are many - with even heat distribution to the food, to the most important of iron rich meals.

Also, make sure to listen to the part where I share why I don't wash my organic produce - the reason is in the video.
