Mutton Dum Biryani | Eid Biryani recipe | Mubeen Taj's Kitchen

yogurt

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: buttermilk

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.

saffron

💰Cheaper: turmeric

Turmeric provides color but lacks saffron's unique flavor.

ghee

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: butter

Olive oil is healthier while butter is a cost-effective alternative.

basmati rice

💰Cheaper: long-grain rice

Long-grain rice is more affordable but alters texture.

Heat oil in a large pot and add whole spices and sliced onions, sauté until golden brown.

Add green chillies and masala paste made from garlic, ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves.

Stir in the chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric, and salt, cooking until fragrant.

Add curd, pudina, coriander leaves, methi, chopped carrot, and peas, mixing well.

Incorporate the mutton and cook until it is browned.

Add sliced tomatoes, lemon juice, and khoya/mawa, stirring to combine.

Pour in the milk and add the rice, ensuring everything is well mixed.

Season with additional salt and ghee, then cover and cook on low heat until the rice is done.
