Veg Hyderabadi Biryani

Description

Veg Hyderabadi Biryani is a majestic one-pot dish that brings together the rich culinary heritage of Hyderabad and the goodness of fresh vegetables. This iconic biryani starts with long-grain basmati rice, layered with a colorful medley of seasonal vegetables and cooked with a blend of aromatic spices like saffron, cardamom, cloves, and bay leaves.

Each grain of rice absorbs the flavors of slow-cooked vegetables, which are marinated in yogurt, herbs, and traditional Hyderabadi masala. The result is a biryani that’s fragrant, spicy, and deeply satisfying — with every spoonful offering a perfect balance of texture and taste.

Unlike many other biryanis, this vegetarian version is cooked in the ‘dum’ style, where the pot is sealed and gently steamed, locking in the rich aromas and flavors. A garnish of caramelized onions, fresh mint, and coriander enhances the overall experience, making it a complete and royal meal in itself.
