Even during the course of a year each pot of biryani that I make tastes different even though I might be using the same ingredients. Sometimes it might be the cut of meat, or simply how my hand seasoned it. My friends rarely notice the differences, but I do. I’m still trying to determine the secrets of my best in comparison to my second (or third) best. I’ll keep at it ;))

I have cooked in restaurants for 13 years. I think your recipes and more importantly, techniques are some of the best I have learned. It is always a pleasure watching your clips and videos. My cookbook is on the way. Thanks Chef

The authenticity of this man as a cook shows in his respect towards the food itself but also more so its origin, its people and also the culture. It's almost like he is thinking like the people who cook the dish he's cooking at the moment and also the people who will eat it. He really FEELS the food that he's making and he makes it sound so effortless. COz that's that: This man just loves food. And his love is dripping in each of his videos- short or long! I really, really LOVE all of your videos. And being an Indian, when you said this food is supposed to be had by hand and then you also actually took a morsel yourself like that and took the dish to the table minus the cutlery.. You seriously won my heart a little more!!

I agree with you wholeheartedly. What’s great is that he respects the recipe as well as he knows how by his own research and his heart, and then he read the comments and applies himself to recreating the dish if he needs a second go at it. Very few chefs have this humble attitude towards learning from the people.

Heat diffusers for the gas stoves are available in most any grocery store and Amazon. A trivet to go inside your pressure cooker (it should come with one) and your Dutch oven after you sear your meat will also help keep the meat, etc. off the direct heat of the bottom. Using either diffuser outside and/or a trivet (aluminum for pressure and cast for Dutch cookers) inside are great tools to help ease your cooking chores. 😊

Until I obtain one I’m going to try a pot cover or some such in there and see how it goes if I’m cooking a low moisture food. Cheers!

Your attention to detail towards the recipe is astounding. It's not just the ingredients, but the process and timing when to add which ingredients is also spot on.

Amazing recipe as always, looks stunning and delicious. If there is one thing I'd recommend is pairing it with raita which is what is traditionally done. Raita is basically a curd dressing/condiment that mellow out the intense spices and works wonderfully with biryani.
