Biryani Masala Powder recipe with step by step pictures. This is made with whole Spices.
Biryani Masala Powder
I never use biryani masala powder when i make biryani..I normally use my regular spice powders like chilli, coriander, garam masala and cumin powders for making them. You can check out my coconut milk biryani, green herb biryani and all the biryani recipes..
I have different types of vegetable biryani recipe in this blog, but i always wanted to post the best veg biryani in this blog. So yesterday i cooked that, i dont want to use regular spice powders for that biryani, i wanted to make it authentic. So decided to make my very own biryani masala powder and make biryan with that.
Ingredients for Biryani Masala Powder
- Cinnamon / Pattai - 4 cm piece
- Fennel Seeds / Saunf / Sombu - 2 tsp
- Cumin Seeds / Jeerakam - 1 tsp
- Bay Leaf - 2
- Green Cardamom Pods / Yelakai - 5
- Black Cardamom Pod - 1
- Cloves / Kramu - 5
- Mace / Jathipathri / Jatiphala - 2
- Kalpasi / Black Stone Flower - 4
- Coriander Seeds / Coriander Powder - 3 tblspn
- Dry Red Chilli / Chilli Powder - 4 to 5 / 1 tblspn
- Star Anise / Anisipu - 1
- Whole Black Pepper / Nalamilagu - 1 tsp
So as the first step i made the biryani masala powder and i smelled the blender jar lid once i powdered the spice and i am telling you it was divine..I made biryani out of that and it tasted amazing just like the ones which you get in the restaurant..Will share that recipe soon.
