I made this biryani when my uncle’s family visited here . Since my mami and periamma(mom’s sister) didn’t like garlic i tried this without adding garlic. And you know the outcome was too good and now a days i am doing this biryani without adding garlic. Check out my collection of Biryani pulao recipes.

Hi jeyashri!!! I made this version today for my little one n my family. It came out yum.. Thanks so much for the no onion/garlic version
ma'am, I was looking for a recipe without onion & garlic & just saw this recipe which includes no onion no garlic. But it seems that this recipe need onion. Do you have any other recipe that does not need onion & garlic.
In this recipe you can skip the onion. Please check my no onion no garlic page in the header tab
The heading says no onion or garlic. However, the recipe has onion….
I have mentioned optional only
