CURRY LEAVES BIRYANI

Biryani with curry leaves? Sounds new, right? I was on the lookout of making a new flavored biryani and this idea popped in my head. Curry leaves have a distinct flavour, and a pleasing aroma which when added even a little bit, adds taste to the whole dish. In my pantry I had Kohinoor Extra Long Basmati Rice and thought of trying this rice to make this new biryani. The addition of Kohinoor Gold Basmati rice which is 24 months Naturally Aged Pure & Authentic Basmati rice makes the dish really special & the beautiful green colour of the curry leaves added more beauty and was appealing to the eyes as well.

I also added some minimal spices, and the dish turned out to be heavenly. I had made a simple potato curry to go with it and the combo was a superb hit at home. I have grounded the curry leaves for more flavour, but you can chop the curry leaves and add them too. So let us see how I made this unique Biryani variety.
