- Clean and prick the potatoes and boil them in water. I microwaved them for 8 minutes.
- Peel and cut each potato into 4 halves.
- Fry them in the same oil where onions are fried to light golden brown.
- Transfer to a dish.
- Now transfer the remaining oil to a big heavy bottomed sauce pan and add in 3 chopped onions.

One of the most requested recipes is finally here! For kacchi biryani, raw marinated meat is layered with raw rice before being cooked together. The first and foremost important thing to take care of while preparing chicken biryani is, always use a heavy-bottomed pan as you would not want the chicken getting cooked. The restaurant-style chicken biryani uses the whole chicken in preparation and the chicken breast can dry when cooking at home. Wash chicken thighs, for faster cooking make a ½ " slit into chicken thigh meat on either side of the chicken, then wipe with a paper towel.
