I was a companion to a 93 year old Parsi Woman, what a Precious Gem she was! She taught me her recipes. They are all amazing! Thank you for triggering those sweet and golden memories! ❤
Hi Chetna, love your videos! I am an American that loves cooking & I’m obsessed with learning from you & your recipes. I’ve just recently purchased your 30 Minute Indian cookbook, which looks great. I usually make one of your recipes weekly & my family loves them, only I have to dial down the heat because we aren’t used to food being spicy, but we are trying to acquire a taste for it! I too have a question about this recipe: When you left the pot on the stove to rest, was the heat completely off?
Hello!!! Looks devine! Hope to make this tomorrow. How do you slow cook it in the pot? Do you just leave it in the pot, or do you add heat??? Can’t wait to try it!!! ❤
Hi Chetna, we tried out your Biryani recipe, and what should I say, it's just amazing! Well we have used a Naan-bread cover instead of the lid, and we reduced the amount of Kashmiri Chili a bit. But over all we where pretty on line!
After the chicken and rice have been layered, does it just sit for two hours or had the dish been cooking for two hours after layering? In other words, is there any cooking while layered that needs to happen on the stove or is all the “layered” cooking in the oven?thank you! This recipe looks amazing
Hi Chetna, this looks amazing! Is it really a whole tablespoon of fenugreek seeds? Not too bitter? Intrigued by the use of sesame oil too. Can you talk a little about this?
Managed to write all the process down watching the video, certainly worth the effort in preparation. Have to try a smaller version can't wait till all the family get together to make the full recipe. That green egg pot looks like a worthwhile investment. Another good fun recipe to watch
chetna how do you managed to stay good on all this indian food. you got a super figure. love your channel. Think you should of won bake off. could watch you cooking all day.
Hi Chetna, where do you get your gorgeous cooking pots and pans? Can you please add links to where you purchase them from or at least the brand/ make etc? Thank you. Love your videos!!
My God Ms Chetna. He was not exaggerating when he said it was for 2 people. I just made this dish, and the amount of willpower I had to exert not to eat it all was astonishing. Waiting for my cookbooks to get here!
For those of you that have tried this, what would be your suggestion to a newcomer to making/serving Chicken Biryani to guests. This recipe or a more traditional biryani?
Honestly the spice for the chicken should be tasty as it seems but the rice was overcooked making the whole recipe look like pudding 🙆The muslims of Lucknow and the people of KPK ,the pashtun region of Pakistan make excellent Biriyani. It is biriyani, excellent taste and looks like biriyani unlike what you did. Biriyanis have very simple spices and the chicken gets marinated with yoghurt. Even if u say its a different biriyani to a normal biriyani,I would never want to try it and cause myself heart issues. You better at other recipes
Good thing. But you need to take certain kinds of criticism constructively from your viewers rather then getting defensive . I live in the Middle East and food here is remarkable to the next level. People here are lavish and love to eat well and cook well. So I really don't care for your attitude. Just wanted to give you my honest opinion. I appreciated your other recipes especially the episode on how to get really soft chapattis cus honestly I am rubbish at it and I don't mind admitting it rather then getting defensive.
Is it really necessary to use God's name in vain. Why not rather say o my gosh. I believe there are many of us always watching recipes don't like to hear you guys saying: o my God.
I'm Iranian and we Parsis dont have this dish. I'm intrigued to know if this dish is genuinely Iranian or is a very old dish that is phased out in Iran?
These are Indian Parsi dishes, that is, of the Parsi community which had come to India as refugees long ago in history and settled down here. So it may not be an original Persian dish but what they developed here in India according to their lifestyle and environment here.
