00:11it is very tasty

00:12and it is very easy to make

00:14and if you add a lot of vegetables, it is also very healthy

00:18so let's start making it

00:20first of all, let's marinate the vegetables

00:22take a bowl, add 1 chopped capsicum, 2 chopped carrots

00:27and 1 cauliflower, it is a small cauliflower, it will be around 1 cup

00:32and 1 cup of freshly peeled peas

00:34and 1 cup of french beans, we will add these vegetables to it

00:38along with this, we will also add 2 medium-sized potatoes to it

00:41here you can take your favorite vegetables

00:44now we will add 3 by 4 cups i.e. 150 grams of yogurt

00:48add 1 teaspoon of salt, I have already added salt, but it may not have been shot

00:53now add 1 teaspoon of red chili powder

00:55and add 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder

00:58and add 1 teaspoon of coriander powder

01:01along with this, we will add a handful of green coriander and mint leaves

01:06and along with this, we will add fried onions

01:08I had fried 2 medium-sized onions, I had fried them golden

01:12so we will add 2 parts to it, we will save 1 part, we will use it during the layering of biryani

01:17let's keep it aside

01:20and we will mix these ingredients well

01:24we will mix it well and leave it for 10-15 minutes for marination

01:28till the time our vegetables are getting marinated, let's prepare a fragrant masala for biryani

01:33add around 1 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 quarter piece of nutmeg

01:381 piece of mace, 6 small cardamoms, 1 big cardamom, 1 clove flower

01:431 teaspoon of white cumin, 2-inch small pieces of cinnamon

01:47and 6-7 cloves, we will put them in a mixer jar

01:50and we will make a fine powder of it

01:52so in this way, our fragrant biryani masala is ready

01:56this masala is very fragrant

01:59and it is sufficient for the amount of biryani we are making

02:02let's start making the biryani

02:04heat around 1 cup of oil in a pot

02:08and when the oil is hot, we will add 1 medium-sized onion, finely sliced

02:14fry the onion till it becomes soft and pinkish

02:19don't fry it too much

02:21because we have already fried the onion

02:24let me tell you that the oil I am using is the same oil in which I fried the onion

02:30this oil has a lot of flavor, so use the same oil in which you fried the onion

02:37when the onion turns pinkish, add 1 tablespoon of ginger-garlic paste

02:43and 5-6 green chilies, sliced from the middle

02:47fry it for 1-1.5 minutes, so that the raw smell of ginger-garlic will go away

02:53after 1-1.5 minutes, add the marinated vegetables

02:58and fry it for 2-3 minutes on high flame

03:02I have fried it for 2-3 minutes and the yogurt and vegetables have released their water

03:08add the biryani masala in the middle

03:16mix it well

03:17and now we have to cook the vegetables in the same water

03:22cover it and cook it on low flame for 15-16 minutes

03:26until the vegetables are 60-70% cooked

03:31do not cook the vegetables 100%

03:34because we have to keep the crunch in the vegetables

03:36if you cook it 100% now and cook it during the dum, then the vegetables will be overcooked

03:43while the vegetables are cooking, let's boil the rice for the biryani

03:47boil 2-2.5 liters of water in a pot

03:49take 4-5 times more water than the rice

03:52I am taking 1.5 kg rice, so I have boiled 2.5 liters of water

03:56add 2 tablespoons of salt

03:59we have to keep the salt open

04:01because the water gets drained, so the rice absorbs less salt

04:05so we will keep high salt in it

04:07add 2 inch cinnamon stick and 2 bay leaves

04:11add juice of half a lemon

04:16add 1 tablespoon of oil to keep the rice fluffy

04:20add 1 teaspoon of shahi jeera

04:23if you don't have shahi jeera, you can use white jeera

04:26which is the normal jeera that you use daily

04:31when the water starts boiling on high flame, we have to add soaked rice

04:35so I have taken 2.5 cups i.e. 1 kg basmati long grain rice

04:39which I had soaked half an hour ago

04:42if you are using sela rice, soak it for at least 1.5-2 hours

04:47now we have to cook the rice so much

04:49that the rice should be about 20% cooked

04:54we don't have to cook them 100% because we have to do the rest of the cooking during the dum

04:58after boiling, I have cooked them for 5-6 minutes

05:01and the rice is about 80% cooked

05:04now we have to take out half a cup of water from it

05:07we will use this water during layering of biryani

05:09so that the rice will be well-dum

05:12and we will strain these rice

05:16here we check the vegetables

05:18I have cooked them for about 16-17 minutes on low flame

05:21our vegetables are about 60-70% cooked

05:25we have to cook them for a while

05:27we don't have to cook them 100%

05:31they should be crunchy like this

05:34now we have to assemble the biryani

05:36I have taken the same pot in which I had boiled the rice

05:41I have applied some oil at the bottom so that the rice won't stick

05:44now we will divide the rice into 3 parts

05:46we will apply the first layer

05:48now we will add some food color and kewra water which I have mixed

05:53now we will add the remaining onions

05:55we will add coriander and mint leaves

05:58now we will add one part of the vegetables which we have cooked along with the biryani

06:03we will use one part later

06:05we will add one part of the rice again

06:07and we will add the rest of the vegetables along with the biryani

06:12now we will add the remaining rice

06:16so our layers are ready

06:18now we have to add the water which we have taken out from the rice

06:23along with that we have to add kewra water and food color

06:26and we will add fried onions, coriander and mint leaves

06:30and for the aroma, I am adding 1 tbsp of clarified butter

06:34it is optional but it will enhance the aroma of the biryani

06:36and the rice will also become soft

06:39now we have to cover it

06:40and now we will cook it on high flame for 2 minutes

06:44and after 2 minutes, we will lower the flame

06:46if your pan is heavy bottom, then you don't have to cover it

06:51and if your pan is light, then you can cover it

06:54and we will cook it on low flame for 15-20 minutes

06:58it has been 15-20 minutes since we have cooked the biryani
