Egg Biryani Recipe | Fragrant & Easy Indian Egg Biryani

0 likes 0 reviews 1 view

 Egg Biryani is a flavorful and aromatic Indian rice dish made with boiled eggs, fluffy basmati rice, caramelized onions, fresh herbs, and fragrant biryani spices. The eggs are gently cooked with a rich onion and tomato masala before being layered with partially cooked rice, allowing the spices to infuse every grain. Saffron, mint, cilantro, and fried onions add a beautiful aroma and finishing touch to this comforting dish.

Easy enough for a family weeknight dinner yet flavorful enough for special occasions, Egg Biryani is a delicious vegetarian-friendly alternative to meat-based biryanis. It makes a satisfying lunch or dinner and pairs perfectly with cooling raita, cucumber salad, pickle, or a simple mint chutney. 

Cooking Method


  1. Rinse the basmati rice and soak it for 20 minutes.
  2. Boil the eggs, peel them, and make a few shallow cuts on the surface.
  3. Heat oil or ghee in a heavy pot and lightly fry the eggs with a pinch of turmeric and salt. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same pot, add the whole spices and sliced onions. Cook until golden brown.
  5. Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Sauté until fragrant.
  6. Add tomatoes, yogurt, biryani masala, turmeric, chili powder, and salt. Cook until the masala thickens.
  7. Add the soaked rice and enough water. Cook until the rice is about 80% tender.
  8. Place the fried eggs over the rice and sprinkle with mint and cilantro.
  9. Cover tightly and cook on low heat for 10–12 minutes.
  10. Turn off the heat and let the biryani rest for 5 minutes.
  11. Gently fluff the rice and serve hot with raita or salad.
