Fried rice gets a makeover after an India tour!
So what do you do when part of the family wants to have biryani and another feels like chinese? I just sorted that out with a fusion. A week after Ramadan, plus 4 odd additional Shawwal fasts Im craving for a punch on my tastebuds. Something "chatpata" as we call it in India. But the rest of the clan votes Biryani owing to genetics.
And... I stir up this dish from scratch trying to fix "the Chinese" in a biryani mould. Only that this time at the end when I lift the lid up, a cloud of chinese "dum" caresses my face. Result? Every bite hits the right tone of spicy, crunchy and umami. Whom am I fooling?
The moment of truth arrives, when presented at the table it was recieved with pleasure. Happy family, happy me. So go ahead and give this twist a
This authentic, aromatic, rich, flavorful chinese biryani recipe will definitely blow your mind. Made using tender, juicy chicken, herbs, spices, chinese sauces, vegetables and basmati rice.
Chinese Biryani is Delicate pieces of chicken cooked with basmati rice taste delicious with onion and cucumber salad.
Chicken Chinese Biryani is simply delicious food. I think this should be called “Rice layered with spicy chicken Chinese style” for a reason. Save it for an occasion, and it will be the best biryani you have ever tasted… THE BEST. That will make you feel like all hard work was worth it.
Biryani itself a treat and if it is something different,then it is a double treat with double richness, double flavor and double taste.

Tips *This slow-cooking method ensures that every grain of rice absorbs the flavors of the chicken and spices, resulting in a biryani thats not only aromatic but also incredibly tender. *Once ready, just remove the lid and let any hot air escape, and then add some more fresh herbs if need be. * I personally, love to drizzle 1 tbsp of melted ghee all over the biryani for that extra aroma and flavor. *Biryani, itself is a whole meal or full dish and needed no accomplishment since yester years but I love to serve the pipping hot biryani with Salad or chilled raita (yogurt dip).
