Directions,
I am air frying them at 160 for 20 minutes.
You can fry them before adding into biryani or add in as it is.
Reason of frying them before adding into biryani is they will absorb more flavour from curry.
Spread all list 4 ingredients on top. Cover with tight lid and turn on the heat high. When you see steam coming out of the pan then turn the heat low and give it 10 minutes dum.
