Here is the recipe of my favorite dish in the world. I can never have enough of it as long as it is done right. The Indian restaurants here disappoint me as I find their Biryani more sort of Pulao. A good Biryani, in my view, should have the fragrance of exotic spices, Basmati rice with a hint of saffron. Also, my portions of vegetables and dals and beans are usually bigger compared to roti and rice ( I can totally opt those carbs out of my meal). So, my recipe contains more quantity of vegetables compared to rice. And it seems to enhance the taste because this layered Biryani is famous in 3 continents! :)
My mouth is watering right now just writing about it.:) Looks like Biryani is going to be on the table in very near future. However I must add, it is a very elaborate process. You can make short cuts but it doesn't taste the same. I have tried all the ways and for me, this is the only way to have best flavors. You will never get it wrong. Just be prepared to give time to it.
