Zainab Shah is in the studio kitchen making her One-Pot Vegetable Biryani. It’s a recipe that streamlines the process of layering the flavors biryani recipes often call for, instead conveniently stirring everything together. Zainab’s recipe is also designed for adaptability, so while she uses cauliflower, potatoes and crunchy carrots, you can use just about any vegetables you have. Nuts and fresh or dried fruits add a confetti of flavors and textures to the dish.

How can she be a recipe developer when you watch her cook she acts like this is the first time she ever cooked this dish on her own. 🤨 "Look mom! I did it!" while looking 45+ bruhh… congrats? lol
What was the ratio of Basmati rice to water?
Desi cooking is not a monolith ffs. We do have lots and lots of greens in our food. Saag is right there if she wanted dish more akin to her roots.
Having said that, one pot biryani rules. Ik that most comments here are salty because its mostly from people who have easier access to amazing biryanis and this seems blasphemous to them but living in the US and neither finding good biryanis at desi restaurants nor having the time to cook one from scratch makes one pot biryanis the perfect alternative. Is it authentic? Probably not. Is it fucking delicious to eat after a hard day at work? F**k yeah.
How come we don't see her cooking anymore on NYT cooking? Did they replace her with someone Asian??

Efficiency is good 😉
This is the dumbest way to make biriyani. Biriyani should have rice with and without masala in it after the dish is done to give it the quintessential biriyani taste. This is a lazy Zainab pulav that should not be done this way at all.
What the heck was that? That's not biryani, that's not even pulao. Why are people calling it pulao?? You don't mix uncooked rice with vegetables in pulao!! You cook the vegetables, add water/broth, bring it to a boil, and then add the rice to it. Elementary Pakistani cooking! What is this one pot malarkey???
Thanks for posting , will make it tomorrow Godbless
Wow take a breath, it’s just food ,not a wrong recipe for the cure of cancer! If you don’t want it ? Don’t eat it! Good grief
Can’t get past the vocal fry croaking and adolescent upspeak.
You are too cute! I love your cooking thank you
Somebody set me up on a date with this woman.
Wonderful video recipe 👌 superb 👌 nice recipe 😋
If i was in madam Shah's place, i would report every unflattering comment. I WOULD NOT STAND for such bullshit and butthurt attitude. Shut the fuck up, sit down and keep watching. It's just food. Everybody makes food differently. Why so butthurt? Silence yourselves. No one cares about your opinion.
I wish you would post a more condensed version of this recipe. One that has the bare bones ingredients. I can't just pull fresh mint out of my pantry or wreck my budget buying 40 ingredients.
Thumbs down to this one pot vegetable biryani. This isn't how you're supposed to play with authenticity of a recipe, of a dish. This was such a letdown. Please refer to other videos on YouTube.
Lack of culinary knowledge and history
I love Biryani but never make it because I feel only very skilled cooks like our mothers can make it. Such simple recipes with fewer steps make Biryani more approachable for people learning south asian food.
TEAM SALTYYYYYYYYYYYY
She is not cooking biryani
She means "Indian" not just "South Asian".
If I name the recording that the background music is sampled from would you hire me?
Why is she speaking with so much vocal fry?
Instead of re-looped background music for old hits you can always hire me to make new music without slowing down old samples and radio hits from the 90s. I'm expensive.
Beautiful recipe. I was looking for this!
Yeh biryani todi hai bhai. Pulao hai, pulao.
The level of anger in these comments are up there with those for a non-authentic Italian recipe 🤣
anybody know where her dress is from?
thanks for the shortcut and nice rings 😉
The praying for it to come out good, I feel that 🤣
Loved your recipe! But yes, it's definitely a pulao (pilaf) or more specifically, a tahari – which is a spiced vegetable pilaf from Uttar Pradesh.
