Green Vegetable Biryani Recipe with step by step pictures. This is Biryani is cooked in coconut milk, Coriander Masala.
Green Vegetable Biryani
Vegetable biryani is one of the recipe which takes place in our menu often. Each time i do it differently, I love to experiment in this. You can check out my normal veg briyani and dum veg briyani which i posted long before in this blog. Sometimes i make biryani by adding coconut milk in it, sometimes i ground up lots of herbs and add it to the biryani. Will be posting those recipes very soon.
I made this biryani yesterday and was very lazy to make coconut milk that day, so i ground up some coconut along with the masala. I also added lots coriander leaves to give a lovely aroma to my biryani and also a fantastic green colour to it. This biryani gets it bright green colour because there is no spice powders added to this. So the colour stay bright and green.Hope you will try this recipe and let me know how it turns out for you.

What a great briyani! So green and full of vegetables - really perfect for spring. I made it yesterday and I couldn't help sneaking spoonfuls of this dish until dinner. Just try to serve it immediately - the more you reheat it, the more it loses that beautiful green colour.
And I think I added too much water (about 2 cups), and the rice came out overcooked. I'll cut down on the water next time.
