Detail overview
Veg Dum Biryani
Veg Dum Biryani is a fragrant, flavorful rice dish that’s slow-cooked (“dum” style) to infuse every grain with rich, aromatic spices. This beloved vegetarian version is made by layering long-grain basmati rice with a medley of colorful vegetables like carrots, beans, peas, potatoes, and sometimes cauliflower, all cooked with a blend of warm spices like cumin, cardamom, cloves, and bay leaves.
The vegetables are mixed with yogurt, fresh herbs like mint and coriander, fried onions, and biryani masala, then layered with partially cooked rice. The layers are sealed and slow-cooked on low heat so that the rice absorbs all the flavors, becoming fluffy, aromatic, and deliciously spiced.
Served with cooling raita or a fresh salad, Veg Dum Biryani is an irresistible, wholesome, and satisfying meal that brings together the best of fragrant rice and spiced vegetables in every bite!
