I’ve done this Biryani before and it took half a day. Even with the hijacking of several males to finish off grinding the spices!!!
I’m planning to do it tomorrow so I’m prepping.
The Hairy Biker’s Curry book is fabulous. But first…
No Time For Wasters :o)
P.S. I have a beautiful, huge, old pestle and mortar. Grinding those spices by hand makes one strong in the biceps and high/giddy on the smell.
