Roasted Baby Potato Biryani Recipe

October 11, 2013 By Sangeetha Priya 12 Comments

roasted baby potato biryani recipe  Here comes a delicious one pot meal Baby Potato Biryani , Urulaikilangu Biriyani with masala coated and roasted baby potatoes. I used brown rice first time for making this biriyani and nowadays no one eats brown rice at home so kids sake i make it with basmati rice only, you can choose the rice as per your wish. Serve with classic onion raita or veg kurma. Also I used oil throughout the process, you can add butter or ghee to enhance the taste. Let’s move on to the detailed post…

Ingredients to make Baby Potato Biryani

Soak the baby potatoes in water for 15 minutes, clean well before marinade, also prick with fork all around the potatoes.
Baby Potatoes – 1 and 1/4 Cups
Red Chili Powder – 1 tsp
Garam Masala Powder – 2 tsp
Yogurt – 2 Tbsp

  • After 30 minutes, grind all the ingredients given under grind including the soaked stuff (Pic 2).
  • After 1 hour in medium flame with necessary oil, 1/2tsp red chili powder and salt, fry the marinated baby potatoes (Pic 3).
  • The left over marinated masala can be mixed with biriyani later.
  • When the potatoes turn golden burn remove it and in the same pan with necessary oil, fry the sliced onions.
  • When onion turns golden brown, remove it(Pic 3) and in the same pan add enough oil to make biryani masala.
  • When oil is hot enough add all whole garam masalas.
