A flavorful, easy and quick Pressure Cooker Vegetable Biryani that gets done in minutes, and is as luscious and indulgent as a longer-cooked version.
I used a stovetop pressure cooker for this recipe, but if you have an electric one or an Instant Pot, go ahead and use it. If your cooker has a "brown" function, you can proceed just as directed for the stovetop version, but if not, you will have to do part of your cooking on the stovetop-- up until the step where the vegetables are sauteed and cooked and the fried onions are stirred in. Then transfer the veggies to the electric cooker, add the biryani masala, coconut milk, lemon, rice, and salt. Set your pressure cooker timer to five minutes or as directed by your manufacturer.
