Biryani is always thought to be a spiced colourfull, savoury dish yet now a new version of White Biryani is talk of town which is plain in colour,mild in spice,melting flavours, but it has gained lot of favouritesome recently.It can be made with with any beef,mutton,chicken or even seafood.I have followed food fusion recipe with little changes from my side.For the picture I have placed my dish at kitchen counter because there is a window here at right side with perfect natural light.The time of picture lies between 1 and 2 pm in afternoon just before having lunch.White biryani has quite different taste from regular biryanis but its truly awsome to have simple mild flavours blending together so well.Enjoy 😋😋
