Paneer Biryani

Paneer Biryani is a flavorful and aromatic rice dish made with marinated paneer (Indian cottage cheese), basmati rice, and a blend of traditional spices. The paneer is often marinated in yogurt, along with spices like cumin, coriander, garam masala, and turmeric, then lightly fried or sautéed to give it a golden color and soft texture. The dish is prepared by layering the marinated paneer with fragrant basmati rice, sautéed onions, tomatoes, and herbs like mint and cilantro. Saffron-infused milk is sometimes added to enhance the richness of the dish. Cooked using the "dum" method, Paneer Biryani absorbs all the spices and flavors, making it a delicious and satisfying vegetarian option. It's usually served with raita or a side salad for a complete meal.
