I was hunting for soya biryani recipe and found some beautiful blogs. Here are a few:
Ingredients:
Rice (Basmati or Sona Masoori) -2.5 glass
Soya Chunks - 1 cup
Cloves - 2
Cardamom -2
Bay Leaf - 1
Cinnamon Stick - 1 inch
Chilli Powder - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric Powder - 1/2 tsp
Ginger Garlic Paste - 1/4 tsp
Green Chillies - 1 or 2
Onion - 1/2 (chopped)
Tomato (medium size) - 1 (chopped)
Salt for taste
Curd/Yogurt - 3-4 tsps
Ghee/Cooking Oil - 2-3 tsps
Procedure:
Wash and soak rice in water for at least 20 minutes. Boil some water in a pan and add the soys chunks to it, add some salt. Put off the flame after 5 minutes.
Heat the pressure cooker on medium flame, and add ghee. Add cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and bay leaf. Saute them for a minute or so, until you get the aroma.
Do not burn the ingredients. Add onions and fry until translucent. Add ginger garlic paste. Saute until it's fried. Add green chillies and chopped tomatoes. Saute until tomatoes lose water. Add turmeric and chilli powder. Saute for a minute.
Drain water and add rice. Mix well. Add salt. Drain water from soya chunks and chop them into required size. Add them to the pressure cooker. Now add 4 glasses of water. Mix everything once and check if salt and spice is fine. If not, you can add required amount of salt and chilli powder. Add curd, mix well, and pressure cook for 2 whistles.
P.S: While you saute the ingredients, see that you don't burn them.
Your soya biryani is ready. You can have it with raita.
