One point to note here is we are cooking rice and vegetable separately. The vegetables gets salt, spicy and cooked correctly so biryani gets good flavor and taste. Usually many people use pressure cooker and put both rice and vegetables together. Due to this vegetables will be mashed. But in our method as we are cooking separately, biryani gets good flavor and taste.
