Donne-style vegetable biryani: beans, carrot and peas cooked in a green mint and coriander paste with sona masoori rice, Bangalore military-hotel style. Pair with raita.
Add `2 tbsp ghee`, `0.5 tsp fennel seeds`, `0.5 tsp jeera`, `1 bay leaf`, `2 cloves` to The Upliance jar. Then, add the prepared blended paste (made from 1 piece onion (cut in two), 10 g mint leaves (cleaned), 10 g coriander leaves (root cut), 8 cloves garlic (peeled), 4 g ginger (peeled), 1 green chilli (stem removed), and 25 ml water). Finally, add `0.75 tsp salt`, `40 g curd`, `70 g diced french beans`, `70 g diced carrot`, `50 g washed frozen peas`, `1 tbsp veg biryani masala`, `1 tsp kashmiri mirch`, `1 tbsp ginger garlic paste`, and `1 tsp coriander powder`.
The Upliance will now sauté the ingredients at medium heat for 30 seconds to temper the whole spices. Then, it will continue sautéing the paste and vegetables at medium heat with automatic stirring for approximately 12 minutes, scraping the sides as needed to ensure even cooking.
After the sautéing, add `140 g washed and soaked sona masoori rice` and `250 ml water` to The Upliance jar. The device will now cook the biryani. It will bring the mixture to medium heat for 2 minutes, then switch to a low heat rice cooker mode for 16 minutes with automatic stirring, followed by a final mix and a 5-minute resting period.
The biryani is now cooked. Garnish with `2 stem minced coriander leaves`. Mix gently and serve your delicious Vegetable Donne Biryani.
