Palak Biriyani – Single Pot Biryani – Healthy Biryani Recipe
One day when I was thinking about what special to cook today this palak biriyani recipe which I saw in Facebook came to my mind. I had never eaten nor have seen the dish earlier. But thought let me try in my way, THE EASY WAY! ?
Thankfully, the biriyani came out good. My family loved it. Nowadays I make this as a special dish for parties.
Talking about the nutrition factors you all know that palak is rich in lot of diatory minerals, vitamins and fiber. So making a biriyani out of it is one of the excellent ideas to feed palak to children.
Above all, it can be made in single pot and so less vessels to wash!
