Khao mok gai chicken Briyani rice

As an Indian, I’ve did many types of Briyani in Indian versions. Few Briyani types are more tricky to get the perfect tasty rice at all time. More over, those are various upon their cooking methods and ingredients too. Since, I like to explore on foods, today I’ve cooked chicken Briyani rice in Thai version, which known as Khao Mok Gai. It is very popular rice dish which you can find at all the time in Bangkok,Thailand.  It is very tasty and aromatic dish ever that I’ve made before this. Those roasted and ground spices made this dish so aromatic and flavoured. The tendency of the chicken pieces were so perfectly done with special ingredients that I used in.Just few ingredients I’ve grinned instead of pounding, but it doesn’t change the taste at all.  Literally this was my first time of cooking for this dish. I am so amazed once it’s turned out well with such a spiced flavory rice and perfect cooked tenderly chicken. So yummy...As a side dish, I’ve made Raita (oni...

I  preferred to use canned sardine in tomato sauce for all type of sardine dish. This  time, I made Mathi curry with white radish and boiled eggs in keralite way.  While cooking white radish in tangy tamarind and rich coconut milk,it certainly gives an awesome fragrant flavours by lingering whole over my apartment. It's really fabulous taste pairing with rice or capati. No worries since I'm ahead for kids lunch, Let's go on with my recipe; Ingredients Canned sar...
