- After the biryani gets cooked before u start mixing it.,take out the top layer of rice in a different vessel and then mix the biryani(this is done so that if u want a less masala biryani u can add this rice or u can leave it according to ur taste)
- Always add the hara-masala to the boiling water(this is done so that the rice absorbs the nice aroma of the haramasala)
