Sindhi cuisine is very simple, use seasonal vegetables and have a lot of varieties. Rice is an integral part of their daily meal. Bhuga Chawaran is one important dish which is made with lots of caramelised onions and that is why people simply call it onion Pulav. Replacing rice with millets did not make the dish less tasty!

Tofu is high in protein and contains all the essential amino acids our body needs. It also provides fats, carbs and a wide variety of vitamins and minerals. As my son is a vegan, I used tofu for this recipe. It can be substituted with paneer.
