Instructions

Cube the paneer and season it, then bake over medium-high heat until well browned, about 9 minutes.

Add the garlic and cauliflower, cooking until softened, about 3 minutes.

Stir in the ginger, garam masala and coriander powder for 3 minutes until fragrant.

Cook the biryani rice separately and fluff with a fork.

Let everything simmer for about 11 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the biryani rice, garnished with fresh herbs.
