HYDERABADI BIRYANI MASALA

An aromatic blend of spices. It's very aromatic and cost-effective cause if you prefer store-bought powders, they are not as aromatic as homemade and they'll make a dent  in your pocket. This multi-purpose masala can be used for Dum- biryani, Chicken gravies and much more. Try this spice masala and let me know in the comments how it turned out.
