Re: Tikka biryani

I cannot share the recipes in traditional form either. I do not measure things. I just use my own senses for quantity of ingredients.
I do not put a spoonful of this and half cup of that etc etc. If I make something new I would study many recipes from the internet and then come up with my own, based on those ideas.

@Chicken Biryani

So I have been severely sick all this week and have been in an awful/down kinda mood…While looking for something in a drawer I picked up a ‘khawateen digest’ (Yes I occasionally read those; I know) and in the recipe column…guess what I see - Chicken tikka biryani recipe…That alone got me so excited :D…Looks pretty promising to be honest…And I am not the kinda person who jumps at a recipe right away, it’s gotta really do it for me, but this one I can see myself trying out…Anyways so I did some quick research and found the exact same recipe on this blog in english. Thought i’d share it here too.

If you guys end up making it, please update here how it turns out; as I will try it myself in the coming new year myself.

Re: Tikka biryani

I’m telling ya…You know me I am very old fashioned when it comes to especially our desi food…gotta be authentic just the way it should made (no chicken nihari for me please ) but the HYPE is off the hook these days for this tikka biryani…hence the mayhem

rosedreams · January 27, 2015, 4:52am

Re: Tikka biryani

Re: Tikka biryani

nothing ever beats the good old Chicken biryani or mutton Biryani .. I tried Tikka biryani in a few places but it just doesnt have that kick that the authentic Chicken biryani has :hinna:

Re: Tikka biryani

I support CB’s narcissism, lol. Original versions tend to reign supreme. They are not only popular but enduring. I’m sure tikka biryani is delicious as well. However, original biryani is tough competition cuz it’s got some pretty complex flavors.
