    I am a vegetarian, but, cook meat delicasies for my friends whenever they express their desire to eat Indian food with me. The age old belief is that the process of preparing Hyderabadi biryani, is quite time consuming and tedious too, since it has too many ingredients [some are easily available and some are not ] to gather before the commencement of it's preparation. But, to my pleasant surprise, what I am seeing here is the easiest way of preparing Hyderabadi biryani that I hardly have come across with, in my entire life. Kudos to you for sharing the recipe, dear Manasi. cheers.
