PREP RATIONS
                  Soak the rice for half an hour ,drain the extra water.now just add half  cup water and half cup milk,add little salt and cloves .than cook it only for 8to10 minutes.you need to be little careful while cooking rice,the rice seed should not be full cooked,it should be cooked only half.drain the extra water .leave the rice aside.also soak the saffron in a milk

                  Cut the onion length wise and fry it till it becomes golden brown,now keep the half of fried onion aside and grind the rest in a fine paste.

                  Take the cumin seeds,ginger/ garlic paste,coriander and green chilli.grind it also in a fine paste.you can add little water to make paste if needed

                  Now add ghee in a pan,add onion and cumin seed paste and stir this paste till it leaves the side.add tomato puree salt,chat masala now mix everything properly.add little water if needed.now cut the egg in two halves ,and mix it in gravy.

                 Hence everything is ready,arrange everything for the biryani,first of all arrange the first layer of rice then add little butter,mint leaves fried onions ,than add one layer of egg gravy.

               Now sprinkle  little saffron milk from above.than add rice from above this,repeat the same process again but always keep the rice layer from the above.

               Now cover the the biryani with silver foil properly.then cover it with lid.last but not least take the dough than bind the lid and pan with this dough.this is good for dum,as it is best for the dum biryani.now take the flat pan on the medium heat than put the dum pan over the flat pan .
