Beef yakhni pulao is wonderful pulao recipe in which rice cooked in beef stock. On Eid-ul-Adha Pakistani people love to make it with fresh meat and it tastes really good when cooked with fresh meat. You can also make it with lamb/goat meat. I am giving here my mom’s recipe of Beef Yakhni Pulao. This dish is in my childhood memories when She made it sooooooooo good and I can’t stop eating this lovely yakhni pulao with yogurt dip. Here I am trying to make it exactly like her 🙂
