#BiryaniRecipes
Smell of biryani makes me mad.
All of my family and friends laugh about it because I can have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I fall in love with smell and taste of Kolkata style biryani and it is a sub-variant of Lucknowi style. The specialty of kolkata biryani is potato. The chicken is soft, tender, succulent with long grained basamati rice.
I make chicken biryani for my friends and keep them tummy happy.
