Notes

Biryani will taste more delicious if you will use ghee instead of oil. Whereas I have used somewhere oil and somewhere ghee.

Chef Tips:

  1. Biryani will taste more delicious if you will use ghee instead of oil. Whereas I have used somewhere oil and somewhere ghee.
  2. For making brown onions, take 2 big onions, cut into thin slices and then deep fry in hot oil until light brown in color. Fry evenly and take out on oil absorbent paper.
  3. These brown onions can be refrigerated for 3 days.Egg-Biryani-Recipe
