It gives a fluffy texture and fragrant taste to the dish. Look for it in Indian groceries or online. If you can&#8217;t find it, then basmati rice is an excellent substitute.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>I love using soy chunks to add some protein to the dish. But you can also use cubed paneer, tofu or even cooked beans (chickpeas, black eyed peas etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>My favorite mixed vegetables for this recipe are potato, carrot, green beans, cauliflower, green bell pepper (capsicum), green beans. But feel free to use any other non-mushy vegetables here as well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mixed Vegetables: Potato, cauliflower, peas, carrots are my usual go-to.

It is an aromatic short grain rice that gives a fluffy texture to the dish. Look for it in Indian groceries or online. If you can&#8217;t find it, then basmati rice is an excellent substitute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I love using soy chunks to add some protein to the dish. But you can also use cubed paneer, tofu or even cooked beans (chickpeas, black eyed peas etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>My favorite mixed vegetables for this recipe are potato, carrot, green beans, cauliflower, green bell pepper (capsicum), green beans. But feel free to use any other non-mushy vegetables here as well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Depending on where you live, you might have to reduce the cooking time. I live in Denver which is 5280 feet (1 mile) above sea level and find that lentils &amp; grains need more time to cook. Cook only 3~4 minutes, if you live closer to sea level.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make Chettinad biryani masala up to 3 days in advance. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and use when ready to make the biryani.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gently fluffing the rice when you open the instant pot is very important. Otherwise grains will get mushy and the rice will not be separate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Store any leftover Chettinad style vegetable biryani in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-you-might-also-like\">You might also like<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few vegetarian side dishes you can serve with the biryani:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-background\" style=\"background-color:#dde2e6\">I love hearing from you!!

It is an aromatic short grain rice that gives a fluffy texture to the dish. Look for it in Indian groceries or online. If you can&#8217;t find it, then basmati rice is an excellent substitute.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>I love using soy chunks to add some protein to the dish. But you can also use cubed paneer, tofu or even cooked beans (chickpeas, black eyed peas etc.).<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>My favorite mixed vegetables for this recipe are potato, carrot, green beans, cauliflower, green bell pepper (capsicum), green beans. But feel free to use any other non-mushy vegetables here as well.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>Depending on where you live, you might have to reduce the cooking time. I live in Denver which is 5280 feet (1 mile) above sea level and find that lentils &amp; grains need more time to cook. Cook only 3~4 minutes, if you live closer to sea level.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>Make Chettinad biryani masala up to 3 days in advance. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and use when ready to make the biryani.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>Gently fluffing the rice when you open the instant pot is very important. Otherwise grains will get mushy and the rice will not be separate.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"> <\/span>\n<li>Store any leftover Chettinad style biryani in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.<\/li>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><\/span><\/ul>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t<h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header
