Biryani! The name itself is enough to make anyone slurp. No wonder it is a part of every feast or celebration in India. Having a get-together with close ones? A dinner party at home? An office party? Biryani seems to be one of the top dishes everywhere. And while the debates about whether vegetable biryani is legit or the battle between chicken v/s mutton biryani goes on and one, egg biryani is slowly making its space in the biryani world. Afterall the versatility of eggs (anda) isn’t unknown to the culinary world! Perhaps that's why we have so many dishes with egg. From omelette and bhurji in breakfast to egg curry in dinner, it has impressed us to no end. Don’t we resort to eggs whenever we crave something quick and easy. We know we do. Then why not make a delightful and indulgent biryani? Imagine the two of your most favourite foods tossed-in together! It can definitely a treat for everyone present at the dining table. So move away from the traditional idea of biryani to make way for this hearty egg biryani, which will leave you hooked! 

How To Make Egg Biryani At Home 

This recipe is no different from your regular biryani recipe and requires more or less the same ingredients- rice, eggs, onions, bay leaf, peppercorns, cinnamon, cloves, ginger-garlic paste and a couple of more spices and herbs. Besides the aromatic biryani masala is a must-have, which you can also make at home. In any biryani recipe, the quality of rice is prime, so try to use long grain basmati rice as it lends a distinct texture and blends well with all the spices.  To make it all the richer, you may use ghee instead of oil. 

The most unique part of this biryani is how the eggs are used; stuffed and fried eggs. The stuffing of the eggs is a mixture of green chillies, coriander leaves, little milk, salt and a teaspoon of mayonnaise, much like devilled eggs. The stuffed eggs are then fried and tossed with the biryani. A garnish of coriander leaves and raita or salan on the side makes this a perfect treat at home!
