mughlai veg biryani recipe – mughlai vegetable biryani recipe – One Pot meal recipe – Rice recipes

My kids love biriyani or fried rice.. So most of the time Sunday is time for some fried rice.. it also works fine for me as these one pot meals are little easy (well one of my friend says typical south Indian lunch which sambar, rasam, 1 kootu, 1 poriyal and yogurt is easier. I guess it goes with each and everyone’s preference). This rice is quite rich and doesn’t require any side dish other than simple raita. This is good for a party / can be part of your guest menu
