thegeby.blogspot.com - For the second day under Bookmarked recipes, I decided to make the Tomato Biryani when Padma had made it couple of months ago. I was so taken in by the way it looked and I had to make it.
While Tomato Pulao that Amma makes, is an absolute winner, I thought I could try a more spicy version and see how my family likes. Everybody loved it when I had made and apart from the Chettinad Vegetable Biyani, this comes second in oft request biryanis in recent times. And I just realized that I have another Tomato Biryani if you are interested. This is what happens after cooking up so many dishes I guess!

Basmati Rice - 1 cup
Water - 1 cup

How to make Thakkali Biryani
Wash and soak the rice in water for 15 minutes.
