Step 1

Rinse the rice and soak in 3 cups of water for 15 minutes while you prepare the onions. After 15 minutes, drain, rinse and set the rice aside.

Step 2

Select Saute mode at high. When the pot is hot, add 2 tablespoons ghee. Add onions, ¼ teaspoon salt and saute until they turn light golden brown, about 12-15 minutes. Remove half of the onions and reserve for later. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to deglaze the pot.

Step 3

Add the remaining tablespoon of ghee, bay leaves, minced ginger, garlic, chopped tomatoes and spices. Add ¼ cup of water, stir and cook for 2 minutes until tomatoes soften. Cancel saute.

Step 4

Add in whisked yogurt while stirring continuously. Add rice and water and give it a good stir, scraping the bottom of the pot with your spatula to prevent the 'burn' sign. Top with half of the chopped cilantro and mint.

Step 5

Place a trivet or a tall steamer basket in the pot. Place 6 eggs on top of that. Close the lid in place, set the sealing valve to 'sealing' and cook on pressure cook or manual mode for 6 minutes at high pressure.

Step 6

After cooking time is done, follow the quick pressure release instructions of your model. Open the lid after the pin drops. Remove the eggs and place them in ice cold water for 5 minutes. After that, peel them. To prevent the rice from overcooking, remove the instant pot insert from the base and keep it on a cool surface.

Pour the soaked saffron over the cooked rice and add the reserved fried onions, cilantro and mint. Using a fork, fluff the rice gently. Let it sit for 5 minutes uncovered.

Turn off the heat, remove the eggs and cut them in half. Serve the biryani in a wide dish or plate, and top with the sautéed eggs. Enjoy with cooling cucumber raita.

Step 12

Add the remaining ghee, bay leaves, ginger and garlic paste, chopped tomatoes and biryani spice blend. Add ¼ cup of water, stir and cook until tomatoes soften.
