Egg Biryani!!!!


I wonder why it took me so long to try out egg biryani. I have tried making chicken biryani, shrimp biryani and vegetable biryani before. I got this recipe from a friend of mine and tried it out for the first time. I must say it came out delicious.

You will need:

6 boiled eggs
3 cups cooked white rice
3 cloves
1 inch cinnamon stick
2 cardomom
1 tsp cumin
1 cup sliced onion
2 chopped green chillis
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped mint leaves
1/4 cup yogurt
1 tsp biryani masala ( store bought)
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
salt to taste

To marinate boiled eggs

1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/2 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp basan powder( gram flour)
1 raw egg

Method:

Begin by marinating the boiled eggs. For this use a bowl and add chilli powder, ginger garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder , basan podwer and 1 raw egg and make it into a paste. Mariante the boiled eggs in this mixture and keep aside.

Take a pan and heat 1 tsp olive oil. Shallow fry the marianted boiled eggs until they get a reddish orange coating on them. Remove from flame and keep aside.

Take 2 tsp olive oil in pan and heat it. To this add the whole spices and ginger garlic paste. Then add sliced onions and saute it till it turns golden brown. Now add the chopped green chillis, cilantro and mint leaves salt to taste and mix well. Add yogurt and mix well. To this add the coriander and cumin powder and biryani masala mix well. Add the cooked rice and mix into it.

Finally add the fried eggs and add salt if required.

Egg Biryani is ready to be relished!!!!!!
