Basically this prawns & egg pulav can be made without adding eggs those who don’t like eggs.  Or can be made just by using prawns, which makes it prawn pulav. If you use just eggs, then it will be Egg Pulav. But since I had lots of eggs in the Fridge and wanted to finish them very soon I tried out this. Also you can add any type of vegetables in it so that picky eaters will also enjoy.
