"This is a sort of lazy man's biryani. Basically you cook the kheema masala first and then layer and cook the rice on top. It is very easy and it always a hit. Serve with raita." — SUSMITA

I did not like it, the spices smelled very nicely but didn't give that much flavor to the meat. Or maybe I missed something.
It turned out alright, a tad bit dry. You NEED to have a nice curry dish along with it or its rather meh.

All the spices need to be doubled in this. This makes A LOT too, and feeds more like 8 or 10. I couldn't find the garlic paste so I just made my own and use 1/4 tsp. of ground cloves in place of the whole cloves.
