Fried onions are a definite must!

I think I'll go back and try Biryani again, I cook on induction and I just need to sort out the timings. Thanks Dalpuri for the comments, I now remember that I should try putting a frying pan under the saucepan.

Cooking the meat seperately works fine but I'd like to master the one-pot style.

Apparently a good chef can tell when it's ready by hitting the outside of the pot and listening to the sound it makes.

*If anyone's interested in trying it there's a very good 'sour berry pulao' recipe in Rick Stein's India book, which while not a biryani is a very dish cooking the meat first.

Yep dum style only way to go

Ahhhh! Thanks Donald  Bizarrely I thought it couldn't be a plate because f the size of the dish which I was assuming was bigger than it was... proportion... if you know what I mean... anyway that certainly makes a bit more sense than just dumping mushrooms on a tray

Is it me  :-X or are the mushrooms on the tray rather than a plate or something?

Ring-burning!!! looks good though

Now that is a fine plate of pie mash and liquor London  .  Far better portion wise than that i got in Leytonstone on Friday.  Will put Robins on the radar for sure.

There's a secret- ask for two pie and mash rather than one    :
