Wednesday Indian

This was an easy one: Chicken Biryani (recipe from BittmanWorld) and cucumber raita (grated cucumber, yogurt, salt, pepper, and a mixture of black mustard and cumin seeds that I toasted before adding).

I removed the skin from the chicken pieces before adding them to the pot, and used leeks instead of onions (that's what we had), but otherwise pretty much followed the biryani recipe. The results were very good, but I think a bit less liquid is called for next time.
