I would like to thank @event-horizon to organize this amazing contest and @cryptokraze to . When I saw the title of contest only one name came in my mind that's "biryani". It is famous all over in pakistan. It's taste varies from one place to another but the Karachi's biryani is famous all over country.

In my family every member like it and always ready to eat. I usually made biryani once a week. Biryani is the main menu of every event in karachi. There are so many types of it like Hyderabadi biryani, sindhi biryani, Bombay biryani, zafrani biryani, polao biryani. These all biryanies have their own taste and having slightly difference in their ingredients.

I'm going to share "biryani" and my biryani is famous in my family and in events I made biryani on demand of family.
