While dal is cooking wash and soak rice. Slice onions finely and deep fry it using enough oil as we are going to use this oil later during dum process. Keep oil in same pan after removing onions or in another small bowl.

Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani
As weird as the name gets, the recipe gets much easier. #Biryani, being the name of one of most Scrumptious recipes in India, has got 17 different predominant flavors spread throughout the country. So I come up with a version which does not belong to any part of India, but helps you out with a great recipe in less effort.I bring you the Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani. Don't worry we are in no way going to pressure cook the rice nor the chicken. It's just a replacement of the tedious "Dum" method where we replace it with pressure cooker, an easily available utensil in every house hold.It being an obvious fact that you cannot escape the effort of marination and brown onions while making a biryani, so expecting a recipe with less prep time is absolute disaster.Lets get down to the #favourite recipe without further ado.chakhleinsta

Mutton Dum Biryani Mutton Dum Biryani
Biryani can be made in many styles. This is one way of cooking Biryani. You can also use chicken or beef. Be careful & patient while you make a Biryani. It is kind of a long process. This is not a healthy recipe. However, you can try to use less oil or ghee during the preparation, also change the quantity of spices according to your taste buds & avoid pineapple if you don't like it. Mix & serve. Pen Friend -
Hyderabadi Murg Dum Biryani (Kacchi Style) Hyderabadi Murg Dum Biryani (Kacchi Style)
#reststyleHyderabadi biryanis are subtle in taste and totally delicious! Hyderabadi Murg Dum Biryani in kacchi style is one such absolutely flavourful biryani.Biryani is prepared in two ways, one where the meat is fully cooked before dum which is called akhni ki biryani and the other where the meat is just marinated overnight and used raw in the dum process which is called kacchi ki biryani. The rice to be used in this case is presoaked and half cooked.Here I have presented the kacchi ki biryani which actually tastes absolutely delicious and subtle. I have always loved this type of biryani and just recently after I had the opportunity to taste such a biryani at a particular restaurant, I was dying to try it out.Well, it turned out just as I had expected and is one of the best among all the biryanis I have prepared till date. Still, this depends on personal choice, as my family feels that all the other ones I have prepared till date are equally delicious! Pooja M. Pandit -
