Have you ever tried to make biryani from the scratch? I have and it is probably one of the most difficult things to get right. I love Biryani. Having lived in Hyderabad, my love for Biryani has only grown. Here, we do get to buy some killer biryani but it costs £7 a pop. For the last 2 weeks, S has been nagging on and on for Biryani and at the Indian store he found the Priya Paste and brought this home. I was very very apprehensive. Usually these pastes taste like Vinegar and that's it.
How to make it was pretty straight forward. 2 cups of rice, 2 cups of cauliflower, carrots, beans, peas and potato, 4cups of water, salt, 2 tsp Ghee and 2 tsp of paste into a rice cooker and cook away. While making this, the fragrance was HEAVENLY! I mean, we couldn't wait for this to get cooked.
This tastes EXACTLY like a hyderabadi biryani. If you know Hyderabad House biryani then this is it. I will Definitely recommend this paste for everyone. :-) Go get it.
