Red Rice from Meghalaya


I found this recipe at food.sify.com when I clicked on Meghalaya. I was little surprised about the use of biryani masala in Meghalaya cooking. I couldn't find any other recipe. So I made this rice to celebrate Meghalaya.

Region - Meghalaya

I sent a comment in the morning, looks like you didn't get it or waiting to be moderated by you!

Came here to tell you that I received your package few mins ago, it smells so good, like I am in Mumbai! Thank you so much, I will make something and post!:)

Btw, chocolate had become Chocolate pudding in this heat but didn't leak outside! Kept it in the fridge to rescue, bet it will be gone 5 mins after my son gets home today!:D
Thanks again, hugs!:)
