Biriyani Recipe

This was given to me many years ago by the owner of KK House of Spices where I used to buy my Indian provisions. I have used it ever since.

Here it is like he told it to me:

• Rinse and drain 2 cups basmati rice

• Chop up 1 big onion and 2 tomatoes

• Fry onion and tomato on low for 5 minutes

• Put rice in the pot

• Add 2 TBS Biriyaii spice. You buy it in small boxes.

• Fry rice 10 minutes on low and stir it.

• Then add any cooked meat or vegetables

• Add 2 times rice of water = 4 cups

• Leave for 20 minutes on low with the lid on the pot.
