Mushroom dum biryani recipe | How to make mushroom dum biryani

By swasthi , on June 3, 2019, 6 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Mushroom dum biryani recipe – Learn to make delicious, flavorful and easy dum style kalan biryani with instant biryani masala powder. This recipe is different from the simple mushroom biryani I shared earlier. But then this one too is very easy and can be made under 45 minutes. I have also shared an instant biryani masala powder just enough to make this biryani. You can easily double the recipe including the spice powder.

This mushroom dum biryani can be accompanied with a simple onion raita or a green chili raita. It doesn’t need any gravy based side dish like a salan/ shorba or a kurma. It is flavorful on its own.

    Hai can you please tell me the biryani masala powder measurement. Because I have biryani powder only and I don’t have some spices you mentioned on top.

    Hello Swasthi,

    I tried this recipe and I must say, this was the best dish I ever made so far. I’m a newly married woman. I must say I don’t have much experience in cooking but your recipe is simple and sophisticated . My partner and I totally enjoyed it. I would have shared the pictures but the aroma was irresistible and we both just digged in.

    I’m a non vegetarian where as my husband is a vegan. I have made him happy but I just want to know how different can I make it if I have to add chicken instead of mushrooms here?
