Egg biryani is a very popular Indian recipe and Indian cuisine is famous for its mouth watery flavours, use of natural herbs and spices. Tonight, I prepared Egg Biryani in the style called ‘Pakki Biryani’, here the rice and the egg are cooked separately and then combined in the final step. It tasted awesome with the combination of onion raita. You can make it extra spicy by adding more green chilly. Here, is the easy recipe for you and enjoy the delicious biryani...:)
