Why soya chunks biryani

Protein-rich soya is less used because of its bland taste but if cooked right it makes the dish flavorful. A meal maker is a great source of protein for vegetarians. Veg soya chunk biryani is perfect for people who are dieting

Mini meal maker biryani

Always use a mini-meal maker as it soaks fast and gives the best flavor for the biryani.

Why sour cream for Indian veg biryani

Sour cream gives amazing texture and taste to the marinated Soya nuggets biryani. I would highly recommend using it. If you don't have it in stock you can use non-sour hung curd or plain yogurt.

Can I skip the marination?

Marinated soya gives the best flavor. I would highly recommend at least one hour of marination if you have time. 

Always saute marinated soya in low flame

To avoid curdling always saute in low flame. After adding water boil on a medium flame.

Can I skip biryani masala

You can prepare homemade biryani masala but I have used Aachi biryani masala. Adjust the masala according to your taste but don't skip it. 

Rice for Soya chunks briyani

I have used basmati rice. You can use any variety of rice according to your choice. Adjust water accordingly.

Should I soak rice?

I didn't soak rice. Used 1:2 water and cooked for 2 whistles. Based n your rice soak if required

can I use oil for cooking?

yes, you can use oil. Ghee gives amazing flavor to the biryani so I use prefer using it.

Side dish for biryani

Biryani goes well with raita varieties,gutti vankaya kura, kathirikai chops, plain kurmamirchi salan and raita
