Bajji,Bonda and Pakoda Mix


Bajji,bonda and pakodas are the tempting deep fried snacks with the same base,the gram flour and rice flour.
I always make the mix and store it in the freezer to make bajjis or pakodas in no time if there is a unexpected guest.
This recipe I got it from one of our family cook and here goes the recipe.................

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
