egg biryani recipe
Learn to make easy egg biryani recipe with step by step pictures – fragrant rice cooked in aromatic biryani spices and boiled eggs to yield a delicious egg biryani.
Iam sharing a recipe that is the most easiest and flavorful one, best to prepare when you are running short of time and want to make your meal special. Earlier I had posted an egg biryani with scrambled eggs and an egg pulao recipe. The taste of those is very distinct from today’s recipe.The one iam sharing today is not a dum biryani, but still is flavourful and can be prepared even in a pressure cooker.
This easy egg biryani can be made using potatoes or capsicum and are optional. But to fulfil the veggie quota for the meal, I prefer to include them along with potatoes. Yes, they add a good flavor, but you must take care not to make the bell peppers mushy.
to make a best egg biryani, the use of best quality fresh spices and powders is very important. I have used the same homemade biryani masala powder that my SNC friends liked when they tried my Hyderabadi vegetable biryani. But you can use any store bought readymade biryani masala powder too.
If you like to try this egg biryani recipe, do try with some potatoes as well to enhance the taste. This time I had no potatoes in hand, so I just went ahead to make it only with capsicum. As always you cannot find green chili in my pan, I did not add since my kids cannot tolerate the heat and spice. But do not miss it for the biryani to taste perfect.
1.Boil eggs, shell them and wash. I prick them with a fork randomly.
2.Heat a pan with oil, fry capsicums for 2 minutes if using and set them aside. Time to add dry spices.
3.When they begin to sizzle, add onions, green chilies and fry till lightly golden
4.Add ginger garlic paste and fry until the raw smell goes away.
5.Add tomatoes, turmeric, red chili powder, salt, yogurt and coriander, mint leaves. Mix and cook till the tomatoes become mushy.
6.Add the eggs and the biryani masala powder. If you wish to use potato, you can use at this stage. Mix well and cook until the mixture thickens and begins to leave the sides of the pan.
7.Pour water and adjust salt if needed. Bring the water to a boil.
8.Add rice, fried capsicums (if using) and cook till the rice is cooked fully.
9.If using the pressure cooker, when the rice is half cooked, very little water is left as you see in the picture above, close the lid and cook on a low flame for 5 minutes. Switch off before it whistles. Set aside to cool. If you wish to have a mushy and soft biryani, allow to whistle. If you are using normal rice, let it whistle once.
10. Fluff up when you open the lid.
11.Serve egg biryani with onion raita.
