രുചികരമായ ചിക്കൻ ബിരിയാണി | How to Make The Best Chicken Biryani

When I was growing up, most wedding receptions took place at home where professional cooks were hired to prepare the elaborate kalyana sadya or wedding feast. I was fortunate to have enjoyed many of these delicious meals including what is still to this day, the best chicken biryani I’ve ever tasted.

That is the recipe I’m sharing today. It is not a complicated recipe but it does take time. However, if you’re willing to make the effort, I guarantee it will be the best biryani you’ve ever eaten as well!  👩🏽‍🍳
