Chetna, I just wanted to let you know that this week alone I've cooked 3 of your lovely recipes for lunch, from the channel and also from your awesome books. They've all been so tasty and healthy. Thanks to you I've managed to cook so much more great Indian food at home during the last year.

@Maiasatara 3 жыл бұрын

These both look delicious! I looked up many recipes and they all call for removing the browned onions to return to the dish in layers when the rice is added. I thought having onion right on top would make the onion flavor more pronounced but it didn’t. I think your way, leaving them in with the chicken or veg to braise, probably produces the flavor I’m looking for. I might still make more as crispy onions to garnish though lol.

looks incredible. I've made your butter chicken biryani recipe several times--always a favorite. I have a question about this recipe, especially the Veg version. I have some vegan friends I'd like to make this for--HOW essential is the yogurt? Should I find a vegan substitute or leave it out all together?

Do what the Iranians do. Boil your rice for less time and then mix it with your wet stuff and let it brew on low heat. Your rice will taste and smell more amazing, guaranteed.

If you want to make it even easier and quicker I use a couple of microwave rice on top of the chicken or lamb mixture if I do not want to make the biriyani in the traditional way. The beauty with this is if you keep a few packs of microwave rice in the cupboard you can make a biriyani in very quick time.
