Mashed veggies stuffed in bread, rolled in swirl pattern. Mostly these swirl breads are either stuffed with sweet cinnamon or herb filling. Mine being an exception… with veggie filling, though primary idea was adapted from one such recipes.
Basmati rice cooked with egg on dum to make this scrumptious biryani. The term "Dum" refers to the whole process of steam cooking or baking. Mostly this process is done where rice is cooked in Handi (special vessel) over char-coal heat and steamed for several minutes, which gives that special taste…. infused from char-coal smoke. So anything cooked without following the traditional method will result less tasty no matter how or with what its cooked.

Yesterday was perfect… a total lunar eclipse, crystal clear skies… brutally cold though, spicy Thai take out…
