Directions
Short-Cut Vegetable Biryani,When time is of the essence and you need to impress someone, this quick and easy recipe is the one to get the job done.,Awesome! Thanks for sharing -made this last week. When cooking the veggies I was certain they were burning -but some just blackened a bit and there wasn’t any carbon taste -much to my relief. Because I know what flavors we like best I took out the ginger and 1/2 of the coriander seeds. And next time I will either buy smaller potatoes or cut them smaller because I wanted more seasoning flavor instead of plain potato. Just sharing my thoughts and about to get ready to make some more tonight. Merci!,I didn’t use potatoes but did add extra cauliflower and squash. It is a good way to use up extra vegetables.
