Hi Swasthi, The recipe is perfect and everybody enjoyed it. However, when it comes to cooking the rice, the recipe here talks about 2 1/2 cups of water but the link provided within the same page for "cooking basmati rice for beginners" mentions 4-5 cups for every 1 cup of rice.... Can you please clarify on that ?2017-04-16 12:16:23Thomas Abraham

Hi I wanted to know that since we are putting the raw chicken in the pot will it cook properly or is it oki if I half cook it before layering.2017-04-10 15:04:15Soma saha

Hi - thanks so much for this recipe. Would it be possible to use a frying pan instead of the tawa? or to partially cook the chicken in advance? I am not sure I have the right pans for this, but am dying to try the recipe! thanks!2017-03-23 01:29:56Mariam

Can you arrange a good cook for my restaurant. he should have atleast 10 years experience. He should know all the recipes of Indian curries and base gravies and should know Indian tandoor also. Regards Uppal2016-12-21 13:46:15Charanjit Singh Uppal (Japan)
Hi Swasthi, I wanted to save this recipe on pinterest, but I noticed that the photos don't have buttons to link to pinterest. Would you be able to add this feature on all of your recipes?

I made the chicken biryani and it is sooooooo GOOD! I don't have the tawa but I used the Dutch oven and it was charred on the bottom. Maybe I should use a skillet on the gas oven, it may help. Thank you for sharing!! Wai Ling btw it was a bit too spicy and I will put less green chilli ( I used 2 serrano chilli)2016-08-21 02:45:13Wai Ling Suan

Hi Swathi, this briyani was very tasty, yummy and flavourful. And also very easy to prepare. Did many times using non stick kadai. But I want to do it for more quantity, can I do this biryani using biryani vessel? . It is in aluminium material.2016-04-06 09:00:29Meenakshi
Thank you for the recipe. I took the liberty to deviate from the recipe you mentioned and experiment some steps of my own. I cooked chicken in two parts. 1. As you mentioned - chicken with spices and card 2. In another pan I heated oil and added clove, cardimom and cinamon, Chicken was pre marinated with garam masala, chilli powder, biryani masala. I cooked chicken with fried onion, garam masala and biryani masala. I did not add card. This made little bit dried chicken and no curry In rice layers I added both the chicken. The fried chicken in button layer and thick gravy chicken in middle layer while the top layer had whole potato (semi pre boiled) and boiled eggs. Each of these three layers has rice in between - Layer 1: Rice Layer 2: Fried Chicken Layer 3: Rice Layer 4: Curd Chicken and thick gravy Layer 5: Rice Layer 6: Whole potato and eggs Layer 7: Rice Layer 8: Sprinkle fried onion and biryani scent And then added half glass of water. And let the rice cooker run for 10 minutes. I have heard if you do it in oven or gas stove, you may lit charcoal and put in a foil and put on top of final layer before closing the lid. That gives a nice smoky smell. I did not do that myself, but have tested wonder biryani smoked with charcoal from our neighbour. Anyway, Thanks for your recipe. It really helped. Glad to share my insights too. Thanks Aurobindo2016-03-15 16:58:35Aurobindo Saha
I made this last year on my sons birthday for atleast 20 people using 2kg rice and although I had to estimate with masalas the overall taste was great and the whole pot was finished! I roasted and grinded each masala as per your biryani masala recipe and it was well worth the effort. Will be making it again this weekend2016-03-01 17:28:39Farri
One of the best recipes for biryani that i have come across. I followed the recipe carefully and even though it was my first time making it, it turned out to be amazing !! I made it again a second time, this time adding potato slices at the bottom of the pot, which stopped the chicken from getting burnt. All in all super recipe !! Thankyou for posting !!2016-02-18 04:19:27Dhara

I made it and test is very good, thank you for this recipe ... Will you tell me if I double the rice quantity (3 cups) and half the chicken quantity (250 gms) then Dry Spices for rice will be double ? and for chicken it'll be half ?2016-01-11 07:43:11soumyo
The chicken biryani recipe was amazing.. i tried it and it came out pretty good.. i didnt have all the ingredients listed.. so i substituted some of my own.. i used powdered cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and so on since i didnt have them in the natural form.. I used whole cloves in the rice but they were very overpowering when i bit into them.. so next time.. i am going to tie the spices in a little bag and then boil with the rice as you suggested.. i used a non stick pan to cook the biryani in and it kinda charred the bottom of the food quite a bit.. i have to figure out how to prevent it. but otherwise.. it turned out beautiful.. my wife and i loved it very much.. Thank You.2016-01-09 21:35:50Deepak
