모든 단계
- 1
Rinse the basmati rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in fresh water for 30 minutes, then drain.
- 2
Heat cooking oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or pressure cooker over medium heat. Add cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, and cloves. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 3
Add finely sliced onion and sauté until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
- 4
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
- 5
Add chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften and the oil starts to separate, about 5 minutes.
- 6
Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, biryani masala, and salt. Mix well and cook for 1 minute.
- 7
Add the mixed vegetables and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender.
- 8
Gently add the soaked and drained basmati rice to the pot. Mix carefully to combine the rice with the vegetables and spices without breaking the grains.
- 9
Pour in the water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Add chopped fresh mint leaves and cilantro.

Cover the pot tightly and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked through. If using a pressure cooker, cook for 1 whistle on medium heat and let the pressure release naturally.

Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before gently fluffing the biryani with a fork.
