  1. This was my first recipe using tofu (which I found here after months of searching!), so I was really apprehensive about how it would turn out. The pulao tasted fantastic, but is rather spicy, so tone down on the spices if you don't like spicy food. Corriander adds a lovely aroma, so preferably don't omit it. I felt the tofu hadn't absorbed all the flavours as well as it should have, but then again, this is the first time I'm using tofu, so I could be wrong..

Thanks for stopping by in my little niche of the mighty Zaar world. <br />Here is a quick link to the beauty recipes I've posted (highest rated so far):http://www.recipezaar.com/r/chef=6357/253/451/18/ls=h <br /> <br />A few things I've done:- <br /> <br />1. Worked part time as a Telemarketer in Oman in the Crowne Plaza Hotel. <br /> <br />2. Worked as a Certified Professional Tarotist (Tarot Card Reader) and done accurate predicitions for many people from different parts of the world, most memorable of which is the reading I did for my college Law lecturer and it came true. <br /> <br />3. Written nearly 1000 poems several of which have been published in leading newspapers, ezines and magazines both in Oman and India. <br /> <br />4. Worked as a Moderator on www.allpoetry.com - my BEST and FAVOURITE site on the internet. <br /> <br />My other interests include: Numerology, Vaastu Shastra, Feng Shui, Face Reading, Reiki and Astrology!
