Choris Pulao is a Christmas staple in many Goan homes, where cured pork sausage does most of the seasoning work. The rice absorbs smoky fat released from choris cooked in coconut oil, while whole spices add warmth without overpowering the meat. It’s a one-pot dish built on timing, restraint, and resting.
