Tomato Biryani Recipe | Thakkali Biryani is a simple recipe of tomato-based biryani. To make tomato biryani, simply add a few more tomatoes to the vegetable-based biryani version. It is a simple, filling, and quick food that is eaten for lunch. Tomatoes and mint leaves enhance the flavour and make the dish even more delicious. Vegetables are optional and I have used some.
