Plain Biriyani

Whenever i doesnt feel like cooking but want to eat something tasty, i prepare this simple version of biriyani. Actually my hubby is a great cook. Whatever he cooks turns out delicious. He is the one who taught me this. Alu kurma, egg pulusu, mutton pulusu anything goes with this. As i told you i make this when i dont want to cook anything big. So, my combination for this simple biriyani is raitha...:)
