semiya biryani recipe
– perfect for quick breakfast, lunch or dinner. A simple biryani can
never beat a dum cooked layered biryani, but still i cook a normal
biryani many times since it is simple to make, doesn’t take much time
and tastes good as well. I made this easy semiya biryani months ago for a
quick lunch. This goes good in the lunch box, keeps fresh and flavorful
for long hours due to the addition of spices. If making for the kids,
minus the chili powder and use less spicy chilli.A mint raita pairs best with this vermicelli biryani, but onion raita also goes well.
