Biryani in presser cookers are so easy and quick to prepare. Most of my non veg Biryani's are made in dum style -in Oven. When it comes to eggs it I try to make them in presser cooker most of the time. This one pot meal is great to carry for lunch boxes or to serve for lunch or dinner at home. It is spring break and we will be going on road trip to our friends place in Ohio. As it is a 8 hr drive I have prepared some thing which easy to eat and a filling dish. My kids love this egg biryani so as my husband. So this dish goes to Day 23 of Mega Marathon theme " Biryani / Pulao / Khichdi recipes with grains".

Even though I do not eat eggs I am bookmarking the recipe . I love pressure cooker recipes and I shall replace the eggs with baby potatoes . The flavours sound delicious , and the biryani looks lovely .
Your biryani sounds flavorful and makes a quick meal even if the eggs are omitted or substituted with something else.
I am sure the egg lovers will be happy to have this. And even without the eggs, I am sure the spices used make it flavorful.
This Biryani looks stunning. The rice has cooked so so well and overall the Biryani is just yum.
This is perfect looking biryani..this can really makes the Sunday lunch look d best...
I love such easy to make one pot meals. The egg pulao looks fantastic. Even I make a similar version but in an open pan.
I didn't think you would pressure cook the boiled eggs with rice, that's really fantastic to know! My egg biryani was a layered one, so I will surely try this sometime.
Making biryani in pressure cooker is really a time saver. I too didn't know that we can pressure cook eggs with rice. Liked this one and will surely try out next time when I plan to make it.
Love pressure cooker biryanis and this with egg looks so inviting. I hope the road trip was fun and you guyz had a great time.
sure treat for egg lovers... I would also like to try this subbing the eggs with either soya chunks or baby potatoes... quick recipe with pressure cooker !...
