    How many cups of rice do Cook for 50 people and with brand of rice do I use? Thank you 💞

    • @GaithreeDeviLuckan
      @GaithreeDeviLuckan  2 роки тому

      We usually work with 3-4 adults per 1 cup rice (250ml). Each 1kg of rice is approx. 4 cups or about 12-16 people. My suggestion is therefore to use 4kg rice, which then comfortably feeds 50-60 people.
      Brand of rice is your choice. We use Tastic or Spekko if we using long grain rice. If we use basmati rice I would add 2 or 3 cups additional. Again basmati will depend on what brand you get at your stores.

    Hello Sweet Mama! Vegetable biryani contains low amount of saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium.It is a good source of dietary fiber and manganese too. It is prepared using various kinds of fresh vegetables like carrot; French beans, cauliflower, green peas, corn, mushrooms and potatoes. So it is a healthy diet. I pity your neighbors who will only enjoy that pleasant biryani smell! lol .Even though I love fish and chicken briyani my favourite is vegetable briyani especially the one that is serve in Indo Mauritius wedding which is loaded with ghee.Also vegetable briyani tend to become more tasty the next day you just heat and have it with a tomatoe salsa pickled birdeye chillies and mango achar! Pranesh fire is pro as you are South-african I guess braai prep is in your DNA! Lol. Biryani is nothing but,
    just a state of happiness .Have a nice Sunday and enjoy!

    • @GaithreeDeviLuckan
      @GaithreeDeviLuckan  2 роки тому

      Hi yes you can definitely do that. Here are the links to how I did it:
      Chicken Biryani - ua-cam.com/video/Ub153iNNZD4/v-deo.html
      Chicken curry (but cornish): ua-cam.com/video/JoEYIk-2Y3E/v-deo.html
      For soft chicken on the outside fire you can braise the potatoes with the chicken as soft chicken cooks quicker.

    Can I please ask what is the reason for adding sour milk instead of tomatoes. Is it s personal preference or is it more tastier. Thank you

    • @GaithreeDeviLuckan
      @GaithreeDeviLuckan  2 роки тому

      It is a personal preference that we have developed over time. They both are acting to add acidic element to the biryani.
      Not sure about the taste but maybe I will try both and do a comparison with Pranesh soon.

      Gadra is also known as Barlotti beans. When they are dried they are red speckled beans. They are easy to grow in the garden and we use them fresh.

    Hi Aunty, I enjoy your videos, but one thing I don't enjoy is that your sleeves are always down when cooking and it touches the ingredients and the food which doesn't look hygienically clean.
