Bluefinger say – little bit bland, but a good basis. Try chop chillies, add fennel, nutmeg etc for more flavour. Bit less ghee.
Orig poster says: My husband’s mother taught me this recipe, an authentic Hyderabadi-style biryani that is a trademark of home-cooking in south India. The chicken, spices and rice all cook in the same frying pan.
