Bulgur Wheat Pulao, Low Salt Recipe

This yummy pulao is so tasty that you won’t feel the absence of rice in it! Made of nutritious bulgur wheat, teamed up with a horde of veggies, this pulao is pleasantly-spiced and has a nice mouth-feel too.

Bulgur wheat, also known as broken wheat, is loaded with fibre and is a good substitute to high glycemic index rice. Being low in sodium, potassium and phosphorous, this Bulgur Wheat Pulao is just right for diabetics with minor kidney problems or high blood pressure.

We have roasted the bulgur wheat to remove the raw smell and also reduce the cooking time. This recipe does not require soaking, so you need not plan in advance for it. Just ensure that while preparing this recipe you do mix it vigorously, otherwise it might get mushy.
