March 2009 hooked me to Andhra cuisine and i learnt to prepare
Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani and Hyderabadi Mutton Biryani
June 2009 so many things made me go for this meal
Parsi style chicken biryani
Winters of November 2009 made me prepare this
Egg Biryani with Goan Curry Powder and
Mutton Biryani with vindallo paste
October 2010,Singapore
so yesterday evening when i thought of preparing chicken biryani for dinner , i didnt follow any recipe ,
i just experimented with the ingredients i had in my pantry and came up with this recipe,
and i felt so elated when Advay told me Thankyou Mummy when he had the first bite,he saw what all i had to do to prepare the meal,he saw me deskinning the chicken,how i struggled to cut the whole chicken(this part is done by hubby but as he was late yesterday) i had to do( i should have referred to this post before cutting chicken )
he didnt move though his eyes were watering because of the onions,he even held my hand while i was struggling to chop the chicken pieces( i never gonna forget this) Thanks Advay for understanding the efforts which i put in preparing everyday meal,..the way you said thankyou i will always remember.
