Vegetable biryani with beans, carrot, peas and mushroom in a curd and biryani-masala base, cooked with basmati rice, mint and fennel. Pair with raita.
First, marinate chopped French beans, sliced button mushrooms, diced carrots, and washed frozen peas with veg biryani masala, Kashmiri mirch, ginger garlic paste, 1 tsp salt, 0.75 tsp coriander powder, and curd in a bowl. Set aside for later use. Add 2 tbsp refined oil, 0.5 tsp fennel seeds, and 0.5 tsp jeera to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will sauté these whole spices on high heat for 30 seconds with automatic stirring. Next, add 170g hand chopped onion, 1 piece green chilli (stem removed), 10 cloves garlic (peeled), and 10 stems coriander leaves (root cut) to the jar.
The Upliance will now cut the aromatics on its own for 10 seconds. After cutting, it will sauté the onions, chilli, garlic, and coriander on medium heat for 10 minutes with automatic stirring. Next, add the marinated vegetables along with 40 cleaned mint leaves and 0.75 tsp coriander powder to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will sauté the vegetables on high heat for 4 minutes with automatic stirring.
Strain the water from the soaked basmati rice and add the 140g soaked rice and 350g water to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will now cook the biryani automatically. It will first cook for 10 seconds on low heat with automatic stirring, then switch to a rice cooking mode on medium heat for 10 minutes, followed by 5 seconds on low heat with automatic stirring, and finally switch to a 'TAT' mode on medium heat for 29 minutes without stirring.
While the biryani cooks, in a separate pan, add 5 tbsp ghee and 2 pieces of hand-chopped onion. Sauté on low heat for 15 minutes until caramelized. Once the biryani cooking is complete, The Upliance will alert you. Garnish the Veg Biryani with the caramelized onions and 2 stems of minced coriander leaves. Your delicious Veg Biryani is ready to serve.
