This biryani was a total disaster. The rice was undercooked and the vegetables were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

The rice in this biryani was a bit mushy. I think I overcooked it.

I found this biryani to be a bit bland. It needed more spices and flavor.

This biryani was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili pepper next time.
