/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Biryani. I can do a decent one with a shortcut recipe but doing a proper one well requires years of experience.

Indian food is perceived to be complex but imo once you get the basics down and get used to having multiple steps while cooking it's pretty simple. But biryani, vegetable, egg, chicken, mutton or goat is really hard to get right since all the elements with different cooking times need to cook in the same pot and all the flavours have to infuse in all the ingredients but at the same time all the elements must remain disparate both in appearance and flavour.
