Tehri was originally concocted by kings in northern India as a vegetarian equivalent to the Mughals' mutton or chicken biryani. This modern-day version has deliciously soft sweet vegetables and flavorful long-grain rice. Serve with chilled yogurt and spicy curry on the side.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my vegetable biryani turned out mushy. I think I may have added too much water.

[email protected]This vegetable biryani was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
