How to make a tasty Mushroom Biryani with coconut

                                 

WELCOME TO RAEIMA'S PASSION

                                    Mushroom Biriyani is an excellent alternative for chicken biryani. It is my daughter's favorite recipe, and I used to make both Mushroom biryani with coconut or without coconut recipes and serve with carrot raita/cucumber raita/onion raita for her lunch box. She loved it. Mushroom biryani with coconut recipe is almost similar to Mushroom biryani without coconut except for the Masalas. We need to more care to roast the coconut part in the masalas section. If coconut is over-roasted or dark brown, the biryani taste will be bitter and not good. So be alert.

                                    In my childhood days, I never heard and saw the mushroom. The first time, In my college hostel, I tasted mushroom gravy with veg idly. Hmm! The taste was like the mutton gravy and outstanding. Ha! Ha! That day itself; I am the first person in the hostel dining hall for all Thursdays😉. Yes, they make mushroom gravy with veg idly on all Thursdays.

                                     Now I am in Netherland, their mushroom is a very cheapest and easy to access with many health benefits, such as

How to make a tasty Nagercoil Vada Aviyal/சுவையான நாகர்கோவில் வடை அவியல் செய்வது எப்படி

    WELCOME TO RAEIMA'S PASSION!!                                             Vada Aviyal, Rasa Vada are a common dish in the Kanyakumari. For both recipes, we prepare the same process for making vada and the taste was adorable and suits well with rice. Coconut act as a major role in the most of a Kanyakumari recipes. Even Vada Aviyal also made by coconut with some spices and drumstick. Usually we like to eat a mixture of Aviyal with rice, so we add more coconut in this recipe. But If you don't want to eat as a gravy, then add 3/4 the cup coconut in this recipe.                                    While preparing this recipe, you can add a whole vada or add a broken vada pieces in the coconut mixture. Usually My mom adds whole vadas in this recipe, but my mother-in-law adds a broken vada pieces. Both methods taste comes good but when you are going to add big vadas, then follow broken pieces method because it is easy for vadas to absorb the coconut mixture juice.
