Andhra Puliyodarai – Andhra Pulihora – Andhra Puliyodharai – Simple Rice recipe – simple lunch recipe

Our entire family loves puliyodarai. All the time I make it with Pulikaachal. So this time I wanted to do something different this time. I saw this recipe in my book so wanted to try. I tempted to do it because of ginger. I love ginger flavour. However not sure about rest of family. Everyone loved it. Sometimes alternate taste to regular taste works. This is also a very quick recipe perfect for the busy morning to be packed for lunch
