Description
Onion raitha / Thayir chutney / vengaya sambal as it’s known with its various names that I know of is the only accomplishment that’s served with biriyani. Me fed up with this wanted to add another salad that would pair up to be served with the biriyani. Broke my head, googled as well but nothing really seemed to be good enough. Then I just dug into what else we have with the biriyani for sides. The boiled egg just flashed in my mind. Why not try and make a salad with boiled eggs was the next question? I did make sure to pair ingredients that would work together and look colourful too. So followed my instincts with a simple flavour combination. Tasted and it was yum. Served along with biryani and it did serve its purpose better than the normal boiled eggs would do. This dish it alert me saying ” there’s no need to cook fancy master pieces just good food from fresh ingredients is all you need to bring a spark at the table. Happy me, another dish added to the regular’s at home.
