There are a few ways of cooking a Biryani but this method is the quickest where everything is cooked at the same time.
Whichever method you use, the marinating process of the meat is very important for the flavour of this dish, I suggest 3 hours marinating time at the minimum, if you can plan ahead, try to let the meat marinate overnight.
