  1. I recently tried it at home, after my trip to Kashmir. It came out to be yummy, and I paired it with a nadru curry.5 stars

  2. Hi Dassana!
    I appreciate the details you shared about the geographic relevance in regards to the ingredients in this dish. I’m excited to try it and have a question: If I were to add fresh fruit, would I be cooking the fruit with the rice so that it softens?

    Or would I be adding it at the end – stirring it in, so that it’s fresh and firm? Also, how would the fruit be cut if it was pineapple or apple, for instance. And, do pineapple and apple grow in Kashmir?

    1. Thanks Robin. You add the fresh fruits as a garnish and do not cook with them. Alternatively you can sauté them lightly in a bit of ghee if you prefer and later add them as a garnish.

      The fruits are cut in small cubes of about ½ inch. Apples grow in Kashmir but not pineapples. We also have a variety of apples called Kashmiri Apples.
      I presume the inclusion of pineapple in the dish must have been invented by some restaurants.

    1. i usually powder fennel directly in mixer and use it as required. but for the amount mentioned in the recipe, you can lightly roast and then crush in a mortar-pestle.
