I was a companion to a 93 year old Parsi Woman, what a Precious Gem she was! She taught me her recipes. They are all amazing! Thank you for triggering those sweet and golden memories! ❤

[@wokeupandsmellthecoffee214]

I can almost taste them ! Why don't you have a go and create a YT video for one of them ?

[@FoodwithChetna]

That sounds special

Lovely sharing

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks

[@sylvialavoie9002]

Love this recipe! Looks so good!

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks

[@mrs.s.5203]

Hi Chetna, love your videos! I am an American that loves cooking & I’m obsessed with learning from you & your recipes. I’ve just recently purchased your 30 Minute Indian cookbook, which looks great. I usually make one of your recipes weekly & my family loves them, only I have to dial down the heat because we aren’t used to food being spicy, but we are trying to acquire a taste for it! I too have a question about this recipe: When you left the pot on the stove to rest, was the heat completely off?

[@francesmunro9666]

Lovely chetna love that dish thank youxx👍👍👍

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks

[@OSheaDean]

Special indeed! What an amazing feast.

[@FoodwithChetna]

So delicious, really enjoyed it

[@shakatime8246]

My God Ms Chetna. He was not exaggerating when he said it was for 2 people. I just made this dish, and the amount of willpower I had to exert not to eat it all was astonishing. Waiting for my cookbooks to get here!

[@emilyokerson]

This looks delightful!

[@FoodwithChetna]

So so good!

[@cariciaangela3052]

Looks gorgeous Missed the last touch though: the ghee..😊

[@tanyamoore3215]

The rice looks a bit mushy, but really a different kind of spice mix, will gv it a try, thanx

[@kutrabilada8865]

Yes the rice should feel gritty when pressed between thumb and finger and then it will finish cooking with the meat.

[@jonathansmythe6273]

could eat that right now, lovely

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks

[@Reddylion]

Biriyani 👍

[@bullymama369]

It's going to be a couple of months before I'm settled in my new kitchen. But I'm looking forward to being able to try this.

[@hermanmeldorf7529]

Kashmiri chilies are the perfect level of heat for me. Not too spicy and just right

[@williamkerr177]

Hey Chetna I’m super excited about cooking this… looks fantastic 👍♥️

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks William

[@legony1]

This looks so good! ❤

[@FoodwithChetna]

It sure was!

[@sahelisabuide]

Wow

[@inmyown407]

U should make parsi dhansakk it's yum both veg n non vegetarian

[@barinderkaur317]

Gud effort to make biryani. It seems very delicious.😊

[@FoodwithChetna]

it was!

[@chrisgreen6259]

Your travels to india notebook... new book coming?!! please let it be so!

[@collettemawdsley7661]

I made this tonight, and I've got to say it was absolutely delicious 😋. Thank you for sharing 💜

[@garydaniels1341]

Managed to write all the process down watching the video, certainly worth the effort in preparation. Have to try a smaller version can't wait till all the family get together to make the full recipe. That green egg pot looks like a worthwhile investment. Another good fun recipe to watch

[@shitalkanitkar5995]

Just a heads up.... Fenugreek seeds are bitter so do experiment with small quantities first..

[@Thesantiniify]

Hello!!! Looks devine! Hope to make this tomorrow. How do you slow cook it in the pot? Do you just leave it in the pot, or do you add heat??? Can’t wait to try it!!! ❤

[@FoodwithChetna]

I put it in the oven to slow cook

[@lynnettejohns4733]

🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@vicentacastillo363]

❤️😘👏👏👏

[@JulieVennewitz]

I'd love to try this. Is there a text version of the recipe available?

[@FlorianBlas]

Hi Chetna, we tried out your Biryani recipe, and what should I say, it's just amazing! Well we have used a Naan-bread cover instead of the lid, and we reduced the amount of Kashmiri Chili a bit. But over all we where pretty on line!

[@FoodwithChetna]

Sounds great!

[@gogo81k]

I love that, "guys quiet please," family where would we be without them. Especially when we're trying to film. 😆

[@Winterwonder55]

chetna how do you managed to stay good on all this indian food. you got a super figure. love your channel. Think you should of won bake off. could watch you cooking all day.

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks a lot

[@poornimakotha9641]

Hi Chetna, where do you get your gorgeous cooking pots and pans? Can you please add links to where you purchase them from or at least the brand/ make etc? Thank you. Love your videos!!

[@louisevalladares5129]

I’d also like to know

[@jasongeorge1874]

After the chicken and rice have been layered, does it just sit for two hours or had the dish been cooking for two hours after layering? In other words, is there any cooking while layered that needs to happen on the stove or is all the “layered” cooking in the oven?thank you! This recipe looks amazing

[@FoodwithChetna]

I let it sit for a couple of hours because we went for a walk and then it cooked covered in the oven.

[@Thesantiniify]

I can see you answered my question here! Wonderful to have a recipe, that can be done ahead of time! Also great when having guests over!!!

[@jasongeorge1874]

@@FoodwithChetna thank you! This makes sense!

[@MsAnubisia]

Do you need to soak the fenugreek seeds to soften them? Or do you just dry roast them straight from the container?

[@pawdaw]

Hi Chetna, this looks amazing! Is it really a whole tablespoon of fenugreek seeds? Not too bitter? Intrigued by the use of sesame oil too. Can you talk a little about this?

[@FoodwithChetna]

It is a massive quantity of biryani so not bitter but you can just add 1 tsp if you like

[@pawdaw]

@@FoodwithChetna looking forward to making it - nothing better than chicken biryani

[@craigblum5385]

I don't see this recipe on your website. How can I find it? Thanks,

[@valerieclifton3902]

Did you keep the burner on for two hours on the stove in the green pot? If so how high was the heat? Or did you just let it sit in the pot.

[@cabalpaxiarch7239]

So do you have to leave it to sit for 2 hours before putting it in the oven to bake? I don't remember this rule from previous biriyani recipes? Or did you have something to do and had to come back and finish it after 2 hours?

[@avatarnemo1]

Omg was not expecting your surprise guest!!! Love you both! Antoni!!

[@FoodwithChetna]

😍

[@majo3423]

For those of you that have tried this, what would be your suggestion to a newcomer to making/serving Chicken Biryani to guests. This recipe or a more traditional biryani?

[@Schlobot]

Would it be possible to post the ingredients in the description, or did I miss it somewhere?

[@barnster5844]

Paste must be cold before adding to raw chicken

[@janabertolaia5450]

I only used fenugreek seed once and found quite bitter 😵‍💫 can I use fenugreek leaf instead? Or is it essential to the recipe? 🤔

[@FoodwithChetna]

Yes it is bitter but fenugreek leaves is not an alternative as it is a completely different flavour. You can skip the seeds in this or add a bit less.

[@dianat8298]

What oil can you use instead of ground nut oil as my son has a severe nut allergy? L

[@esfanintan]

List of ingredients please.

[@jooniejoon728]

I think its about time someone invented smelly vision .....................just saying!!

[@darren990]

whats with the spoon in the wine bottle ..is that so you can hear if the kids try to have a quick swig lol

[@OSheaDean]

It's an old wives tail that it keeps the bubbles longer lol

[@FoodwithChetna]

Yes that is correct, old wives tale but I feel it works 😂

[@alifmustafa4135]

I think u should cook it in cooker not in oven.

[@FoodwithChetna]

why? I prefer using the oven! and you should also cook it however you like👍🏼

[@EthelbertCoyote]

This is one of those dishes I don't know if I would serve to picky eater children as I would not want to waste a spoonful. Call me a jerk it's fine.

[@---------------------------...]

The audio has been quite weak since last several videos.. 🤔

[@FoodwithChetna]

Oh dear! have checked and double checked before posting though......

[@bigphil5042]

It's fine for me! I laughed when you told your kids to be quiet

[@---------------------------...]

@@FoodwithChetna Oh 🥲 It sounds fine at high volume, but when I go to another video, I notice that the volume is too high. Anyway, works for now 👍

[@johnjeff5112]

Great video, but you over cooked the rice!

[@lombmusic07]

How is this digestible 😮

[@avon1413]

Honestly the spice for the chicken should be tasty as it seems but the rice was overcooked making the whole recipe look like pudding 🙆The muslims of Lucknow and the people of KPK ,the pashtun region of Pakistan make excellent Biriyani. It is biriyani, excellent taste and looks like biriyani unlike what you did. Biriyanis have very simple spices and the chicken gets marinated with yoghurt. Even if u say its a different biriyani to a normal biriyani,I would never want to try it and cause myself heart issues. You better at other recipes

[@FoodwithChetna]

well you can cook the rice how you like, this is not overcooked. But then its my meal so I dont really care about what you think!!!!

[@avon1413]

Good thing. But you need to take certain kinds of criticism constructively from your viewers rather then getting defensive . I live in the Middle East and food here is remarkable to the next level. People here are lavish and love to eat well and cook well. So I really don't care for your attitude. Just wanted to give you my honest opinion. I appreciated your other recipes especially the episode on how to get really soft chapattis cus honestly I am rubbish at it and I don't mind admitting it rather then getting defensive.

[@chrispitrakkos8925]

Is it really necessary to use God's name in vain. Why not rather say o my gosh. I believe there are many of us always watching recipes don't like to hear you guys saying: o my God.

[@cinnyfilms6229]

I'm Iranian and we Parsis dont have this dish. I'm intrigued to know if this dish is genuinely Iranian or is a very old dish that is phased out in Iran?

[@ak20162]

These are Indian Parsi dishes, that is, of the Parsi community which had come to India as refugees long ago in history and settled down here. So it may not be an original Persian dish but what they developed here in India according to their lifestyle and environment here.
