😋Step 2:-

• Now I cut the two tomatoes as shown below and let them boil.
• When the tomatoes are cooked, I blend them with the help of a blender and put them in a bowl.
• And I cut the onions into small pieces and arranged them on a plate.

😋Step 3:-

• I wash the rice and the rice with water several times, and let the water drain using a strainer.
• I wash the carrots with water, cut them into small pieces, and arrange them in a bowl.

😋Step 4:-

• I fry the onions.
• When the onions are fried, I remove them from the stove.

😋Step 5:-

• Now I put a saucepan on the stove. I put three spoons of ghee in it. When the ghee gets hot, I put the raisins in it, fry the raisins in the ghee for a while and put it in a bowl.

• Now I cover the saucepan well with a half-lid. So that the meat is cooked well.

😋Step 11:-

The food I have prepared today is a popular food in Afghanistan.
The main specialty of Afghan Chicken Polao is its elegant simplicity and unique balance of flavors. It is not heavy or overly spicy, but a unique version of various spices with a deep aroma as well as raisins, almonds, and vegetables.

Specialties of this dish are -

• It is a perfect balance of mild sweet flavors and salty tastes.
• Moderately spiced chicken meat
• Sweet ingredients like carrots, raisins, fried in ghee
• Light spices of biryani are added, along with a mixture of cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves.
• Rice is cooked in boron chicken broth instead of ordinary water. As a result, each grain of rice can absorb the deep flavor, which makes the dish rich without being oily.
• The biriyani is neat,
• The fried carrots, raisins, and almonds present here make the food more delicious with every bite, which gives it a royal look and taste.
  Afghan chicken biryani plays an important role in Afghan culture.
• For Afghans, it is not just a dish, but a symbol of hospitality.
• Serving pulao to guests is a sign of honor, and it is often the main dish of celebrations.
• They prepare this delicious chicken pulao to honor special guests.

Chicken biryani is also cooked a lot in our country. Chicken biryani also plays an important role in celebrating special occasions.
Now I will compare the chicken biriyani of our culture with the popular chicken biriyani of Afghan culture and highlight the similarities and differences.

First, I will mention the similarities between the chicken biriyani of the two cultures.

Now I will mention the differences between the chicken biriyani of the two cultures.
