Hey why should you be the last to ask? Welcome to the forum  there are many great Biryani recipes out and about but perfection and biryani is a labour of love,time and learning.

Re the Laziza Biryani mix, I have not tried it, simply because those mixes that I have tried all include ground spices, which I regard as anathema when cooking rice.  May I ask whether the Laziza Biryani mix (I use Laziza in other contexts, e.g. Laziza Karahi/Fry masala) includes ground spices, or only whole ones ?  When making a biryani, I will normally use (whole) cassia bark, tej patta, star anise, green cardamom, black cardamom, kala jeera, cloves, saffron and garlic flakes
