Notes
We have used 1/2 cup of ground paste for cooking. Hence use only 1 cup of water. 1 cup of Basmathi rice requires 1.5 cups of liquid in total to cook.
We can also use Jeeraga Samba rice which will be flavourful and best to make this biriyani.
Adjust the liquid ratio according to the variety of rice you use.
