Truly truly yummy!!! Wanna try this one soon.....
ReplyDeleteJay a doubt here...dum here means a heavy bottomed vessel?I mean should I need to keep a heavy bottomed vessel above the container closed with moist cloth?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by n ur inspiring feedback..!
ReplyDeletebtw..for dum biryani, after the cooking process is over, we seal it with moist cloth. Place it over a thick girdle kept on low flame for 10 to 15 mins. This makes the biryani fluffy n aromatic.
giv a try n enjoy..;)
