Nutritional values

Cauliflower is a first-class source of potassium. The mineral ensures a balanced fluid balance in the body and helps prevent cardiac arrhythmia - so the pump stays in time.

If you can't get oyster or shiitake mushrooms, you can replace them with button mushrooms. Instead of cilantro, the biryani with cauliflower also tastes great with flat-leaf parsley.

Cook washed rice with raisins in 2.5 times the amount of salted water for about 15 minutes until half done, then drain. Meanwhile, dissolve saffron in 2 tablespoons of hot water. Clean and wash the beans and put them in boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Then drain and rinse with cold water.
