Kathal is a big source of vitamins, antioxidants, magnesium, potassium and dietary fibre. Its got a meaty texture though not the taste but still that makes it a favourite substitute for meat in any recipe as it absorbs the flavours of other ingredients and spices added to it.

Ingredients used in this Kathal biryani are the same as any veg biryani recipe or mixed vegetable biryani recipe. Indian veg biryani recipes have a lot of variations depending on the regions where they are made because every Indian state or region has their own set of spices which they use, so accordingly taste also differentiates. Like we have famous Hyderabdi biryani, Lucknow biryani And Kerala biryani. These biryani were originally made using meat but now they use the same flavours and spices to make a veg biryani or even Kathal biryani. Take for example in Kerala biryani we find the use of Coconut milk and Curry leaves which we donā€™t get to see in any other biryani. Letā€™s take another example in any biryani from Kolkata we get boiled Potatoes, which are absent in biryaniā€™s from other states.

Usually, in biryani go a lot of whole spices but itā€™s not intentionally made hot and spicy because it serves as a main meal the main course.

Here you will get to know the detailed step-by-step recipe of Kathal biryani and taking that as a guideline you will be able to make any veg biryani in the pressure cooker that helps in the process of making hassle-free dum biryani best cooked slowly on low heat.

A best-serving combination for biryani is Salad and Raita or even Achar.
