Mushroom Biryani Recipe | Easy Pressure Cooker Mushroom Biryani | Kaalan Biryani | Lunch Box Ideas / Quick lunch Ideas

Many of my readers and friends were asking about Mushroom recipes for such a long time now and finally I am posting this recipe. This is the first ever mushroom recipe in this space and hopefully, I will be posting much more soon. Yesterday, Jany had the potluck in his office and he wanted to take both veg and non-veg dishes since many of his colleagues prefer vegetarian dishes. We kept the menu to be simple and I made this mushroom biryani, Chicken Cutlet, and Wheat Flour Unniyappam. I will post the wheat flour Unniyappam next week, you can check out my rice flour version of unniyappam until then. 
Winter has already started in Sydney and I am not able to click any dish that I prepare in the early morning since I am not receiving enough natural light. I am not satisfied with these pictures too, I will update this when I take good Photographs.

Carrot Rice Recipe | Lunch Box Ideas /Quick Lunch Ideas

I prefer variety rice for our lunch boxes during busy working days since it is easy to make and pack. Jany also likes variety rice than kuzhambu rice for lunch box. So, I explore many kinds of one pot meal and this carrot rice is one among them. This is a very simple recipe which we can make it in a jiffy and it is healthy too. Let us see the preparation steps:

Ghee Rice Recipe | Nei Choru /Ney Soru | Lunch Box Ideas/ Quick Lunch Ideas

I am here with yet another interesting and delicious rice bowl. It is my all time favourite Ghee Rice. In my native Nagercoil for the wedding, if they prefer Non-Veg food then this Ghee Rice plays a major role that is served with chicken fry and mutton kurma. I love this combination very much being a hardcore wedding Saapadu fan. This rice goes well with a spicy curry of your choice. We usually accompany it with Non-Veg gravy or dry curry like Chicken Kuruma, Dry Chicken Masala, Spicy Mutton Masala, Chicken Fry, Mutton Chukka Varuval etc. If you are a vegetarian, then you can have it with Vegetable Kuruma or Panner Butter Masala etc.

Ellu Sadam Recipe | Sesame Seeds Rice | Til Rice | Lunch Box Ideas/ Quick Lunch Ideas

Once I was talking to my friend Angavai and I just asked her about the calcium rich food items since Happy is not very much fond of Milk. Immediately she told me about the Sesame seeds/Ellu which is a good source of calcium.  So, I was googling about the recipes with it and this Ellu Sadam caught my attention which is very simple and easy to make for our usual working day lunch box. She gave me the recipe of ellu chutney too which I will be posting it soon. Already I have Sesame Seeds Ball (Ellu Urundai) and Sweet Sesame Seeds Dumplings (Ellu Poorna Kozhukattai) in this space, please check that too.

Curd Rice Recipe/ Thayir Sadam(Bagala Bath) |Lunch Box Ideas/ Quick Lunch Ideas

In South Indian Cusine, it is common to end our meals with curd rice. It is such a comforting dish, which I prefer to have it anytime. Though we normally end our meals with plain rice and curd, I sometimes prefer curd rice with ginger and green chilli seasoning. It is a very simple and easy to make recipe. This is ideal for lunch box too. Everyone has their own way of preparations and I make it this way. And, let us see the preparation steps:

Lemon Rice Recipe/ Elumichai Sadham | Lunch Box Ideas/ Quick Lunch Ideas

I usually don't prefer having variety rice. I like to have rice only with Kuzhambu and kootu. But I have learned few quick lunch recipes just for the sake of Jany's lunch box. Whenever I was lazy and wake up late, I use one of these recipes to pack lunch for Jany. Out of all these quick lunch recipes, lemon rice is one of the easiest with very less ingredients. I have clicked this recipe long back and was lying in my drafts. When I saw lemon rice as one of the Navarathri Recipes, I thought of posting it now. Without any delay let's go to the preparation steps.
