    January 30, 2017 By Anlet Prince 2 Comments

    Red Cabbage Biryani / Red Cabbage Biryani is one of the colourful and healthy Biryani recipes. Red Cabbage almost looks like a purple color. It is popularly called as purple cabbage. My little one does not like cabbage. I got this idea of making purple cabbage biryani while thinking about how to make her eat cabbage. She loves biryani though and the Coconut milk flavour and here it is Purple Cabbage Biryani with Coconut Milk. She liked the purple color of the biryani as well. A perfect lunch box recipe too. Here goes the recipe…

    Notes:

    • I love to use grated Cabbage. You can also chop them into small pieces.
    • If using fresh green peas they can be used as it is. If using dried peas, then it must be soaked in water for 4 hours and pressure cooked partially. It must not be mushy as we are going to pressure cook it again.
    • Soaking rice in water helps to cook rice soft. Do not omit this step.

      Hey there, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your website in Firefox, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!
