Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani is the technique of cooking Biryani helps to make the recipe much more delicious because the closing accomplishes maturing. Inside it the ingredients relieve utmost flavour and fragrance which boosts the richness of the recipe.

 There are various kinds of biryanis in India. The most well-known biryani is Hyderabadi dum(steam) biryani that is considered to be produced in Nizam kitchen the very first time. There are lots of stories about how it was initially made but the truth is that this is among the perfect Biryani. This biryani is steam cooked with uncooked mutton and Basmati (Indian long grain) rice with seasonings.  Generally, Hyderabadi dum biryani is cooked with mutton. But these days’ chicken, fish and prawns will also be found in making dum biryani.

 Biryani using ‘dum’ approach has become the lengthiest standing recipe to-make list. Dum biryani is actually unique, particularly when meat is included. Surprisingly, making chicken dum biryani is faster and simpler compared to veggie version due to a ton less cleaning and chopping of veggies. One and the only thing that requires some advance planning is the marination of the chicken, a move I wouldn't suggest missing due to the fact that is what results in the chicken extremely soft and maintain its very own when dum cooking the biryani.

 Chicken Dum Biryani has two variations, Kachha (raw) and Pakki (cooked) Biryani. When the biryani is cooked on dum, while you open the lid, your kitchen odours aromatic, vibrant with all the comforting fragrance of pure ghee and saffron and also the chicken cooked to soften within the mouth tenderness.

 Biryani is a couple of rice-based meals made out of seasoning, rice (generally basmati) and mutton, fish, chicken, eggs or veggies. The name hails from the Persian term berya(n) meaning "fried" or "roasted". Biryani was created by the cooks of Mughal Emperors. Lahore, Kashmir, Kolkata, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Delhi/Agra and Malabar are definitely the major centres of biryani dishes.

 Some things to make note of while preparing biryani. Use top quality aged Basmati rice, top quality chicken and also the finest saffron accessible. Marinate chicken not less than 4-6 hrs. and when not having enough time then a couple of hours will work. Any Hyderabadi will desire biryani and I hope you'll appreciate Dum Biryani prepared by using this recipe.
