I am a Pakistani, and Biryani is kind of our national dish😄We always add tomatoes to Biryani and I think they add a very rich taste, also a few lemon slices on top of rice gives an amazing aroma, thats the only difference I noted here.If you dont have aloo bukhara, tarmarind also gives a kick to taste.This recipe also looks good, I will try it.Good job!

I made this tonight and finished eating around 10 seconds ago!! I felt that i needed to say how amazing this recipe is. I'll be honest that i didn't have all of the ingredients, i substituted the bay leaves for dried curry leaves, and i didn't have the dried plums. However, it had SO much flavour.

I started trying to cook these meals 30 years ago and failed dramatically. Persevered on and found a celebrity chef who went to India, quite an improvement.
Your instructions and hints have us not going to restaurants any more and we are invaded with friends wanting dinner at our house. The most valuable ingredient you add is LOVE. Thanks

[roberts]

I cook every day but have always been frightened of cooking Indian food, but you have changed all that. I cooked your Madras for 16 people (after doing it twice before) and have today made this Biriani (you forgot the peppercorns in the ingredients list). I'm hooked. Thank you so much. You have changed everything for me.

[anneoneil]

Just follwed this recipe almost to the letter (I always change it a little). Can't buy Aloo Bakhara where I live). Added a small amount of tamarind instead, added Panch Phoron to the Bhuna as well. It tastes utterly gorgeous!! I always thought Biryani was going to be far too complicated for me to cook - thank you!

[chrislunnon]

I've been watching this video for about a month . Wanted to try this recipe . So I invite my family round for a meal . Didn't tell them what I was cooking !!!, done your recipe but I used chicken breast instead !! Omg it was absolutely 👍 I have to take this moment to thank you so much !!!!
My family thought I ordered it from my local Indian they didn't believe I made it . Until I showed them my pot with leftovers in . So you should have more subscribers soon .
😊

I hate that it took this long to find this video...my wife is thanking me like crazy. I wont show her ur videos cause i dont wanna lose her to you... thank you.

[yasminbegum]

I was watching your videos for over a year without hitting the bell icon, I then realised I need to support you so I can keep seeing these great videos, which have totally transformed my cooking.
I would rather see authentic and talented people succeed on You Tube!
"No nonsense" recipe....in your words "absolutely fantastic". Thank you for your brilliant and comprehensive content. Keep up the work good Latif, we need more people like you to help us amateur cooks step up our game!

[sandieyeshua]

I purchased all the ingredients and made it today. Visitors and family members, we all thought that it was delicious ❤

[SD-qfln]

I just wanted to come here to say thank you for this delicious Chicken Biryani recipe.
I went to the shop and bought all the spices, and I must say, 15£ was my best investment, because, this dish is just delish. I can't wait for my partner to come home now, to try it. And this is my first ever try at Indian/Bangladeshi cusine. And I cannot wait to try all your delicious recipes, as I have now a separate shelf for only South Asian spices😁. Thank you

[indubhalla]

Love the way Latif explains everything in such a simple way which encourages us homemakers to cook. Also he uses simple utensils that we all have at home, no fancy designer utensils. Great job mate.Just came across your channel.

[maggieramsey]

I made this yesterday along with naan bread and the 4 of us round the table (ages 11-70) loved it. Finished off the leftovers tonight and this recipe is definitely on our hit list! Will make again for sure.

[leonardsmith]

I'm a simple man, I see a Latif's Inspired video I hit like. Recipe looks incredible! I've been looking for one recently and like you said, they all make it look and seem so complicated. Thank you so much!

[jinnsaliun]

I made this for dinner today but I forgot to buy plain yoghurt and dried plum. I had to use my daughter's strawberry yoghurt and substitute plum with dried raisins. It turned out delicious, my fussy daughter rated it 9/10. Thanks for the recipe, I like it better than the more complicated version.

[chrissmith]

I just made the chicken biriyani and I want to thank you so much for giving the approximate measurements in this dish it still allows you to tweak it to your liking.
You truly are a great chef!
Cheers!!

[markbailey]

This is the best Biriyani recipe/tutorial I have seen, initially I was a bit doubtful, but you've smashed it! I'm now able to have a go at a dish that in all honesty I thought was beyond my capabilities, well done!

[kijihigh]

Hello my friend. Yesterday I visited the Indian Grocery Shop for the first time. It was huge. I was able to buy everything needed for this dish. I am so excited. Over this coming weekend I will challenge this recipe. By the way, I removed all of the spices from their packages and placed them into glass jars. This way they will keep much longer. I included the expiration dates on each jar. Very important!!! At the same time I became familiar with each spice. A lot of fun!

[karyostos]

Thank you so, so much!!! I am Mexican and have been looking for this recipe for so long, I just didn’t know the name of it. I tried it when my brother’s friend’s wife made it for us but they moved away. As soon as I saw the picture I knew this was the recipe. 😁❤️

[johnjperricone]

Making it tonight for my second time. This recipe is outstanding. My stovetop is a joke, so I finish it in the oven for the 45 minutes and then rest for 20 minutes. Can't wait to see how it comes out.

[Pogo]

I just finished cooking it. It is the best ever. My family love it. Thank you
