Can you please Carpediem 43 tell me whether rice taste delicious in case I do not have yoghurt?

[carpediem43]

jawad384,does'nt matter,add some extra tomatoes,but ofcourse with yoghurt.it will taste little better.

It looks delicious. I can't find Kewra water or essence at the market. Can Rose Water be used as a substitute? Or is that the wrong flavor. (I've never tasted Kewra)

[carpediem43]

@AllUrUtubeRbelong2me ,sorry for the late reply,Kewra is added khushboo in biryani,it has no taste.I have never tried rose water,I dont think it will be a good substitude..

Very good Biryani. Pakistanis and Bangladeshis cook good Biryanis.

I just prepared this biryani and it came out delicious!!! I didn't use the microwave 'cos I had to make a bigger batch. I layered everything on a pot and kept on the fire with a thin skillet below the pot and with a very low heat, cooked about 15-20mins... Simply love it! I have done Hyderabad biryani, south indian, various types ..I should say this is ONE of the best :) Thanks for sharing....

First time here. You seem to have an exhaustive collection of Indian recipes including videos. I was looking for a chilli paratha recipe while I chanced upon your site.

[crazyhotelier]

stop giving wrong recipes for people in your dummy English slang. people watching this think this is the actual recipe and follow it till they find out its wrong. if you want the actual method of mughlai dhum biryani, ask me. its a lot different from this jhatka biryani you posted.

[crazyhotelier]

what if i dnt have a micro ovn? anyways, i believe meat goes as first layer but never does rice. except for you. main ingredients are spices and yogurt. tomatoes are not good to taste in biryani. anyways nice mixture of chicken curry and rice. nice pulao.
