Method

1. Soften the onions, garlic and ginger in oil until the kitchen smells warm and spicy. 2. Add the carrots, cauliflower, beans and tomatoes and cook them briefly so they keep structure. 3. Stir in the spices and rice, then add the stock and bring everything to a gentle simmer. 4. Cook with the lid on until the rice is fluffy and the vegetables are tender. 5. Fold in the peas at the end so they stay bright and sweet. 6. Finish with coriander and lemon for a lighter biryani that still feels festive.
