Fish Biryani - Indian Kitchen

The below recipe for Fish Biryani.

Are you really tired upon the same old Fish fry and fish gravy then u must surely try this one. This is one of the easy briyani's that i ever made till date. Right from my child hood i would wonder what’s a Fish briyani??? Or even wonder how they make it with Fish, as it is so tender to be handled. Even in many restaurants they serve chicken and mutton briyani as the main dish or even Prawn for that case but never a Fish briyani. So i just thought of trying this recipe which was a big hit the first time. And this is one of my husband favorites.
