    Hi Rehab, Thanks for the awesome recipe. I looked all over the web for the authentic Hyderabadi Marag recipe -yours is the best. I think the dalchini makes all the difference. I am from Hyderabad originally so i know what Marag is all about. Can you post a recipe for (Paki Akhni) Biryani please? Not sure about the spelling ;) Cheers, Priya.
