Veg biryani as the name suggests is a type of biryani made from vegetables. It is one of the famous dishes in Indian households. It is not only easy but also the most delicious. Running out of time to cook for a last-minute party or a visit? This is the recipe for you.
This is a one pot veg biryani recipe which is much more convenient and easier than the 2 step biryani process. Follow the instructions and add as many vegetables as you like. I have used carrot, beans, and some green peas. You can add cauliflower, potatoes, radish, beetroot, etc
Serve it with raita, brinjal gravy or you can savor it without any sides as it tastes the best on its own.
