Fragrant saffron rice layered with fresh vegetables and spices

Biryani has always been a celebration dish in India, and Umesh’s vegetarian version captures all the colour and flavour of the original. He layers fragrant basmati rice with carrots, peas, green beans, capsicum, and potatoes, seasoning them with his signature spice blend before finishing with saffron for that golden hue and irresistible aroma.

Each spoonful carries distinct layers of flavour – the fluffy rice, the gently spiced vegetables, the subtle perfume of saffron – all slow-cooked together in true biryani style. It’s mildly spiced, deeply satisfying, and a complete meal on its own. Perfect for sharing between two, this biryani brings the tradition of Indian family kitchens straight to your table.
