Special Biryani for Mother's day

-

 

Happy mother's day to all moms. My weekend was busy because all my children were off from work, also it is mother's day. I am very happy and relax I know all mothers are happy today because being a mother is a wonderful feeling when children hug you and say"happy mother's day mom". A woman during pregnancy passes through so many difficulties: eating, sleeping, walking and giving birth to a baby. But after the baby's birth when the mother sees her newborn baby for the first time she forgets all those pains and difficulties she passes through. And when she raises her children, she almost forgets herself. She feeds them before she eats. Anyway, if I   only talk about mothers it will never be the end. It says that "paradise is under the mother's feet". We should always care and love them and we should show our love to them😍 . That is what a mother wants. I will now share some recipes. Yesterday I cooked biryani, so I will share that reci

  I had an Air fryer for a long time but,  I was making just French fries, chips etc. But then I knew that we could make chicken, vegetable cake and many more recipes within a very short time and without making a mess!! All the above without oil frying is very beneficial for health. If you are looking for a tasty and simple way to cook chicken breast then, an air fryer is a great choice for you. You don't need to worry about them burning or sticking and you have a perfect dinner within 30 minutes!  I have been making chicken breast in a pan, and always I need to keep an eye on it because the edges become dry if it's overcooked and if undercooked it will be pink on the inside, my children don't like that.      Tomato from garden  But it will not happen in the air fryer!
