Thank you for this super recipe, I've used it on a number of occasions (with a few modifications) and have always got rave reviews... it is an easy-to-make-can't-get-wrong recipe for super biriyani, thank you once again!!!

I followed this chicken biryani recipe closely, but it didn't turn out well at all. It was really bland. Which is shocking, because it smelled amazing. After 3 hours of prep/cooking, I was quite let down by the way this turned out.

We made this today, it's wonderful. We made it for a young man that we know that is from Bangladesh and he said that it tasted just like home.

I made this using the exact recipe (no substitutions/changes) and it is exceptional! Glad I have a well-stocked spice cupboard (thank you, Penzey's!).

I'm used to cooking an authentic lamb biryani a completely different way. I even tossed up whether to adapt my version to this one, but I'm so glad I didn't!! This recipe is sensational!!! I followed the directions exactly (except I used a bit less salt!) and apart from the accompanying picture being incorrect, it turned out perfectly!! Great flavours, succulent tender chicken!! Can't wait for leftovers tomorrow night!!

My husband is from southern India and this is one of his favorite dishes. This recipe is made in different ways, the Muslim version (according to him), being the best, and most difficult. I made this recipe for my husband; however, I think it's important you chop up 3 small green chiles and cook it with the tomato mixture, that way, it gives this dish the necessary kick as in India. Also, my husband said the original version is made with hard boiled eggs and not potatoes, though I made it with potatoes. Finally, along with the green chiles and tomato mixture, I also added about 2 tablespoons of red pepper flakes. Overall, this recipe is good and my husband said it tasted EXACTLY like the way his mother made it back in India.
