Last weekend I made Briyani with Chicken…I have tried making briyani many times,Each time there will be something missing in it.But last time I made the perfect briyani,After I finished making it I was so proud of myself,Yes ...the Briyani Aroma filled my house.That should happen only when you make the perfect briyani.I wrapped the Whole garam masala ingrediants in a cheese cloth so that you will get the flavours of it but wont get a bite into it (which was awful).I mixed the rice along with the masala so that the Briyani was so flavourful.I served it with Onion Tomato Raita(for recipe check this link)So please give it a try and let me know how it turned out.
