SECRETS To Cooking A PERFECT Chicken BIRYANI (STEP BY STEP GUIDE)

[@adamchurvis1]

Bumbi, bless you! I have been eating biryanis of all types for the past 40 years in some of the very best Indian and Pakistani restaurants, and I have tried to make a good one every now and then over the past 15 years with never a good result. I'm very dedicated. I have a proper wet grinder and love to make idli and dosa for the family, I make a proper sambar using my own masala mixture, and make fragrant basmati quite a lot, but bringing together perfectly-seasoned and -cooked basmati with perfectly-seasoned and -cooked meat in one dish has eluded me with great frustration. I followed your instructions in this video and the result was the finest biryani of any kind I and my adult son have ever had. Every aspect was spot-on perfect and delicious. There was no other way to relish this dish properly than to eat with my hands, as I had been taught to earlier in my life. The act of gathering a mouthful with one's fingers and eating entirely with one hand adds another set of judgments to the assessment of whether the dish was properly prepared or not. I am so very proud to have made an excellent biryani with your most masterful help, Bumbi. From now on I follow your videos first. Take care, and keep up the most excellent work! 🙂

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

I am so very happy to hear that. Glad you found the video useful but all the credit goes to you as you put in all that effort into making it. Biryani is really very tedious to make but it is highly rewarding. Regarding wet grinder, I’ve been longing to buy that for many years. What brand you are using please may I ask? Are you satisfied with the product ? Thanks .

[@adamchurvis1]

@@CurriesWithBumbi It was actually quite difficult, as I am recovering from spinal surgery and any movement is painful, even with strong medication. I had help with bending and lifting and also moving anything over 10 pounds, but I saw your video and just could not wait any longer! Worth every minute of effort, and I can't wait to do it again soon. I bought my wet grinder from Amazon for two hundred. It's called the Premier Small Wonder Table Top Wet Grinder. The wet grinder has exceeded every one of my expectations. I HIGHLY recommend it. Just never make the mistake of conching chocolate in it; there is a separate stone-bottomed bowl for that. The difference in texture between blending and wet grinding idli/dosa batter is immediately noticeable between your fingers when you mix in the salt after fermentation. Smooth as silk, not gritty at all. Another thing I do is I smooth a Chinese ingredient called Pi Xian Dou Ban Jiang that has broad beans and whole spices and rough-chopped chilies. I make it smooth using the wet grinder and that makes the ingredient easier to use in more sauces. I hope this helps. Thanks for all of YOUR help, Bumbi!!

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thanks for your reply 🙏🏾. Hope you feel better soon.

I have tried making Biryani for my son multiple times in the past following recipes of well known famous chefs but could never perfect it. My son , who is a picky eater and has a high standard of taste for food, is finally eating the biryani with this recipe. Thank you Bumbi. You saved the day for me. Your perfect and unambiguous instructions makes it possible to make this Biryani taste as good every time I make it.

I am so happy to hear that. Glad your son liked it.

Excellent cooking video Delicious and tastey chicken biriyani LK

[@messierthirtyone777]

I tried this recipe today. It was wonderful!! ❤ Wife went crazy Some tips for others who want to try: - Make a little more barista (fried onion), use a spoonful of barista while making ginger garlic paste. Use this in marination. - Scoop out some oil from the barista to sprinkle over the rice once its been layered over the meat - While boiling the rice, you only need green cardamoms, cinnamon, bayleaf, salt and coriander leaves to get the fragnance. You can add a scoop of the Kurma (the gravy of the chicken) into the boiling water. I added Knorr chicken bullion to the water to make it taste better. - Each variety of Basmati rice takes different time to boil so you need keep checking for done-ness. Thanks Bumbi!

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

You can put on dum on glass top stove as well. Just keep the heat as low possible. So do 5 mins of high heat and then reduce heat to very low and keep it for 15 minutes. If using oven, put it in a 350F preheated oven for 15 minutes .

Your method of preparation looks very different, especially with what you do with the onions and rice, two essential ingredients in a Biryani (I have used potatoes in a Biryani before and I do agree with you, if done well, they are sometimes even better than the chicken).

[@lespantalonsfancie2434]

I've made biryani a handful of times now by following other YT recipes, and whilst the results improved slowly with each attempt, the biryani I made last night following your video definitely trumped them all! I learned a few tips from you that made me realise why earlier attempts where a bit lack -lustre. One was not using enough yoghurt for the marinade to create that luscious masala, and the other was not using enough oil when starting with the cooking. These elements created lots of moisture and flavour in the final dish. I added potatoes for the first time, and they are quite delicious! I also made the yummy raita (although not enough apparently, as it went very quickly). I enjoyed making my own garam masala, biryani masala and chaat masala to bump up the freshness of the spice flavours. Thank you Bumbi!

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Glad you were satisfied. I feel a dry biryani is no fun at all, so a bit more of yogurt makes it yummier. Thanks for your lovely feedback

I honestly smiled through the whole video, what a lovely way to teach cooking! 🎉❤

[@소라게-p3k]

Thank you for all your kindness and effort with this recipe. Your calm and specific steps are helped me understand the whole recipe. I’m Korean and ever since I tried Indian food, I've been craving it often and stared looking for a briyani recipe… Your video is wholesome, but I think finding spices will be the hardest part. 😢😢 - ginger-garlic paste (ok) - Any biriyani masala (shipping available) - unflavored plain yogurt (ok) - kashmiri red chilli power (shipping available) > but maybe I could try this paprika powder in my kitchen instead - turmeric powder (shipping available) > I searched that Korea also has 강황(ganghwang)(different type of turmeric in India), but I think using India turmeric could be better… - ground coriander (ok) > I think this is ok to use Korea coriander called 고수(gosu) - chopped coriander-mint leaves (ok) - saffron (shopping available) - kewra water (shipping available) - basmati rice (shipping available) - bay leaves (ok) - garam masala (ok) - shahi jeera (unavailable) There's a long way to go, but phew! Someday I'll really make and eat it. Thank you sooo much for this lovely chicken briyani ❤❤❤

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Make with whatever is available at your place. It will still be delicious.

[@소라게-p3k]

[@elizabethdudley8230]

watching your videos is a privilege - you teach, we learn but so fascinatingly and tantalisingly so. We watch, spellbound and vicariously taste what you produce, hoping that by following your instructions to the letter we will pull off the same. Have to say that every single dish I have made of yours has turned out to be utterly delectable. Thank you - from Scotland
