Directions: Egg Biryani Recipe

  • STEP 1.Boiling eggs in pot: Rinse the eggs well under running water. Pour water to a pot and gently place the eggs in it. Pour enough water to cover the eggs. Cover and cook on a medium heat until you see cracks on the eggs. Turn off and rest for 5 mins. Later drain the water and keep the eggs under running cold water. Shell the eggs. Make 2 to 3 slits on them and set aside.
  • STEP 2.Boiling eggs in Instant pot: Pour 1 cup water to the steel insert of your Instant pot. Place the steaming rack and arrange the eggs on the rack gently. Alternately you can place them in a steel bowl and cover it. Press PRESSURE COOK button and set the timer to 5 mins.
  • STEP 3.Once the IP finishes let the pressure release naturally for 5 mins. Release the rest of the pressure manually by moving the steam release value from sealing to venting.
  • STEP 4.Remove the eggs carefully and keep them under running cold water. Peel the eggs. Make 2 to 3 slits on the eggs and set aside.
  • STEP 5.Heat a pot or pressure cooker with oil. Add whole spices – cinnamon, star anise, shahi jeera (or cumin), cloves, bay leaf and cardamom. Sometimes I first fry capsicum in oil for a few minutes and set them aside. I use them towards the end to garnish

  • STEP 7.Add ginger garlic paste and fry until the raw smell goes away.

  • STEP 10.Pour water and adjust salt if needed. Bring the water to a boil.
