- Add the ground masala paste & mix well. Now add the curd and mix again, keeping the heat low.
- When the mixture begins to bubble, add chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder and biryani masala. Mix and cook for 3-4 mins.
- Add salt along with the fried potatoes and mix again well until they are coated with the masala. Cook in medium flame for 4-5 minutes until oil separates from the masala and the raw smell goes off.

- Add oil / ghee as mentioned or little bit more as the rice will be very dry if there is less oil / ghee.
