Recently I came across veg biryani recipe in a coffee mug. I loved the idea and tried it for our Sunday lunch yesterday. Mug biryani is nothing but the usual layer biryani assembled and baked in a microwave safe mug. I followed my vegetable layer DUM biryani for gravy recipe and adapted the outer covering recipe from
HERE. Raksha was so happy and fascinated to see the biryani in a bowl. She was eagerly waiting with me in the kitchen to see the output.
As I wished, the result was awesome. We all loved it. I reserved a bowl of biryani for myself & had it for dinner too. Friends, do try this biryani for a change & attract your family members. Lets check out this week’s Sunday Lunch Recipes Series no 32– Flavorful Mug biryani adding mixed vegetables!!
