When it comes to biryani, everyone’s a taker. Rice grains, cooked in aromatic spices, layered with masala, and in this case, paired with hard-boiled eggs, make it a power-packed dish on its own. Add a creamy, green moilee (mild coconut milk-based stew) to the mix, and you’ve got a complete meal, no extra sides needed.
