Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegetable Biryani Dish.
Step 1
Start by warming a generous amount of ghee or olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the diced red onion and sauté it until it becomes soft and translucent, which should take about three minutes.
Step 3
Next, stir in the aromatic cumin seeds, a cinnamon stick, and a handful of peppercorns.
Step 4
Allow these spices to mingle and release their delightful fragrances, cooking for another three minutes until the cumin seeds start to pop.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add the ginger garlic paste along with the diced tomatoes and half a cup of water.
Step 6
Bring this vibrant mixture to a gentle simmer, letting it bubble away until the water evaporates, which should take around five minutes.
Step 7
Once the water has disappeared, fold in the peas, diced carrot, and diced potato.
Step 8
Season this colorful medley with chicken bouillon, a pinch of salt, ground red chile pepper, black pepper, garam masala, and turmeric.
Step 9
Give everything a good stir to ensure the spices coat the vegetables evenly, then cover the pot and let it cook for an additional three minutes to let those flavors meld beautifully.
Step 10
Now, pour in four cups of water and crank up the heat to bring it all to a rolling boil.
Step 11
When the water is bubbling enthusiastically, add in the rinsed basmati rice.
Step 12
Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about ten minutes.
Step 13
After that, lower the heat to a gentle low setting and continue cooking until the rice is tender and fluffy, which should take another ten to fifteen minutes.
Step 14
As the aroma fills your kitchen, you’ll know you’re in for a delicious treat! Enjoy your flavorful creation!.
