In my opinion North-Indian biryanis are known to be very rich in flavor with a lot of ghee and saffron-milk used to enhance the taste, but comparatively, the south-Indian biryanis have so much more essence. The amazing blend of coconut, roasted spices and the vegetables comes to life in this recipe. As this recipe emphasizes more on the spices mix and the coconut flavor, it doesn't make the biryani as heavy or rich as a regular north-Indian or Hyderabadi dum-biryani. It is a slightly time taking recipe, but absolutely worth all the efforts.
While watching Khana Khajana, one of the episodes featured this recipe and I had to try it out.
Absolutely loved it! I am not a big rice fan, but I am sure I ended up eating about a month's rice quota that day.
A must try!
