Hi all here is my attempt towards making use of international vegetables like Asparagus!! I tried making asparagus masala and it was a hit.Today when i planned to make vegetable biriyani, there was no beans and suddenly i thought why not asparagus in place of beans?! Tried out biriyani with asparagus and it tasted very nice , hence sharing this recipe with u all.| Ingredients | |
|---|---|
| 2 cup | Basmati rice |
| ½ cup | Curd |
| 1 tbsp | Ghee[optional] |
| Oil [as per ur preference] | |
| 1 | Medium sized onion [cut lengthwise] |
| 1 | Tomato[chopped] |
| 1 | Green chilly[slit open] |
| Whole spices[ few fennel seeds,big cardamom, 2 cloves,1 inch cinnamon stick, 1 bay leaf] | |
| 1 tbsp | Ginger garlic paste |
| Asparagus[one bunch chopped],peas[handfull],potato[chopped] | |
| 1 T | Chilly and corriander powder[adjust as per ur taste] |
| Salt[as per taste] | |
| Corriander and mint leaves [for garnishing] | |
| 1 tsp | Garam masala powder (optional) |
Instructions
1.Take a pressure cooker, add oil and ghee, once when the oil is hot enough , add the whole spices ,Mint leaves and corriander leaves and then add Onion and saute it till it turns translucent.Meanwhile wash the basmti rice and soak it in water.
2.Now add the Ginger garlic paste and green chilly and saute it till it gives a nice smell.
3.Now add tomato and saute it well ,followed by asparagus,peas,potato ,chilly&corriander powder,salt ,garam masala and mix well.
4.Add half cup of curd followed by 2 and a half cup of water and mix well.
5 Now add the Basmati rice,mix well and close the cooker,once when steam comes put the vent and wait for one whistle.Once when u hear the first whistle sim down and wait for 5 minutes and switch off the stove.
6.Wait till the cooker completely settles down.remove the vent and the lid , u will find hot Asparagus biriyani ready.
Notes
1.One cup of basmati rice needs just One and a half cup of water .More water would make the rice very sticky.
2.U can just prepare the same thing in electric cooker and there is no change about the water and other content.
3.To make raitha just add chopped onions[medium sized one] , green chilly[just half] ,corriander leaves finely chopped and salt to the curd and mix well. Raitha is ready.
