Dear ranjetjoy, there are many ways of cooking biryani. i give you the basic vegetarian recipe. par boil rice- in a separate pan put oil- saute sliced onions, paste of ginger & garlic & tomato- add garam masala powder ( you can make your own powder by powdering cumin, cloves & coriander seeds)- add fresh mint & 2 spoons of curd- salt to taste _ add boiled vegetables & sweat for some time- add slit green chillies & put in the parboiled rice & finish on a slow flame. An easier method would be to throw in all the ingredients in a pressure cooker & cook. do tell me how it came out. I also remember eating a phillipino sweet made from rice flour. It looked like white jelly & tasted divine.can you tell me the name please ??
