If you're missing traditional equipment but still want the fragrant scent and delicate flavours of dum biryani, don't worry! You can make the exact same delicious food in the comfort of your own home with just a gas stove and a few easy steps.
Step 1
Place layers of partly cooked biryani in a pot with a heavy bottom. Cover the lid closely with dough or a cloth to keep steam inside.
Step 2
Place a tawa (flat griddle) on the gas stove to evenly distribute heat and prevent direct contact with the biryani vessel, ensuring gentle cooking.
Step 3
Set the flame to low to simulate the slow-cooking process of traditional dum, allowing the flavours to mix together and the meat or vegetables to become tender.
Step 4
Let the biryani cook undisturbed for the specified time, allowing the magic of dum to work its charm.
Step 5
Once done, remove from heat, carefully uncover, and relish the heavenly aroma as you serve up the piping hot, perfectly cooked dum biryani to your guests and family members.
