Vegetable biryani

Vegetable biryani

Ingredients

  • 200 g basmati rice
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • a handful green beans, chopped
  • 4 tbsp peas
  • 1 tsp mild curry powder, no salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 500 ml unsalted stock
  • 2 tbsp plain yoghurt

Contains: Milk

Method

  1. Soften the onion; add the spices and vegetables for 2 minutes.
  2. Add the rice and stock; cover and simmer 18 minutes until the rice is soft. Squash your child's peas.
  3. Serve with yoghurt. Salt for the adults.
Safety: Peas squashed. Cool cooked rice quickly. Serve your child's portion first, then salt the rest for the adults.
Storage: Eat the day it is made.
Tip: Fragrant rice with vegetables through it. Turmeric turns it gold, which toddlers like.
