Mushroom Briyani

    Am a big huge lover of mushroom. Even though i know very limited recipes using mushroom, it will be there in my kitchen atleast once in a week nowadays. Mostly i use to prepare mushroom either as briyani or as gravy/Masala. So, today i like to showcase my version of mushroom briyani. Do check out and let me know your comments as well !

ALL YOU NEED:

Diced Mushroom	8 Nos.
Sliced Onion	2 No.
Chopped Tomato	1 No.
Turmeric Powder	Pinch
Basmathi Rice	1 1/2 cup
Bay Leaf	2 Nos.
Mustard	1 spoon
Fennel	1/2 spoon

Garlic	7 Nos.
Ginger	1 1/2 inch

METHOD:
     Grind all the ingredients under "To Grind" and keep it aside. Heat 2 spoons of ghee and 1 spoon of oil in a cooker, add mustard, once it splutters, add bay leaf, fennel seeds and sliced onion, saute all by adding pinch of salt. Once done, add grounded items, saute well by adding pinch of turmeric powder. Once its half cooked, add chopped tomato, saute well until oil oozes out. Now add diced mushroom and a spoon of curd. Give hard stir until mushroom gets mixed up with masala. Now add 1 1/2 cup of basmathi rice (i just gave a quick wash not soaked in water), saute for 2 mins. Now add required amount of water. I have added 2 3/4 cup of water and adjust with salt. Cover the cooker with lid partially. Once its 1/4 th cooked, cover the cooker completely and put the weight. Once you get a whistle, place it in simmer for 7 mins and switch off the flame. Once pressure gets released serve hot with raitha.
