This is spicy and one pot biryani there are many variations in making mushroom biryani. Based on their region and the ingredients used. Biryanis are always special delicacies it may be veg or non veg. I usually make non veg biryanis like Mutton and chicken dum biryani. With mushrooms usually i make kadai mushroom or simple subzi.
This mushroom biriyani requires easily available ingredients and can be made quickly. And I make chettinadu style mushroom biryani with coconut milk, soon i will add that recipe also.
