VEGETABLE BIRIYANI

Vegetable Biriyani...This is My Hubby's recipe...Being a Bachelor he used to cook this almost twice a week and many of his frens are big fans for his Biriyani...He cooks it very well and perfectly.

The First day when I came to USA after marriage he cooked and served me this Biriyani around 2am early hours..I was shocked tasting this Biriyani and felt that I'm very lucky to get him as my better half...
