The level 3 chef: "I'm using freekeh grain instead of basmati." Me: I think this is a very good time to pause the video and head over to the comments section sir, yes, sir.
No, basmati is not recommended because basmati is very flavourful and has its own smell. We use rice grain which are dull in flavour so every ingredient blend perfectly. As same as we do while cooking catfish.
@@dusuline bro, i am in in chef training and on a special occation i get a change to join cooking with masterchef gagan anand. He told the entire class that there are some ingredients which should not have its own taste which we use in biriyani. i belive people are using basmati for its strong aroma and wonderful taste but we should be well aware that there a a lot of varities of biriyani like hydrabadi, lucknowwi and awdhi. it totally depends on how you wish to make it. i guess

@@arry2605 rinku ji one's was good,what she did wrong is she put less rice,which made the biryani little bit wet and not fluffy.But it still is pretty good,if she would have putted more rice,then it would have been near perfect
@Puneet Singh, atheist, fight for good healthcare He is one of the level three chefs, and there’s this running joke that he gets his ingredients directly from the source because he is so fancy lol
You actually can. Basmati is a Highland variety that's used in North Indian biryanis. Tamil biryanis ude jeeraga samba rice which is short grained and takes on the flavor of the spices rather than have it's own unique flavor like Basmati.
I’m not Indian myself, but my best friend growing up was Indian, and I spent all my time at his house, and Level 3 did not make anything close to biryani. Disrespectful 💀
Level 1 : I appreciate him trying his best even though it turned out more like a khichdi than Biryani Level 2 : Biryani, you maybe familiar with a different kind but she made Biryani nonetheless Level 3 : *wth is this abomination!*
You can’t just swap basmati for freekah and call it biryani. Or put one clove. Do you even spice? Next time I’m making Lasagna but with sheets of boiled rice, as it’s less processed than refined flour. Take that Level 3 Lady.
I'm quite disappointed that the level 2 chef wasn't highlighted in this video, she seems to be a sweet Asian mom. And for the level 3 chef I think the onion wasn't caramelized, its more likely burnt hshshshsh
@@aizac91 Palak is also a person of colour and diverse. So if they really are just choosing people to be diverse, they could have asked her too. Or really maybe they just wanted to show case a different style or fusion and so asked this chef to appear. We haven’t tried her biryani, it might be good. Also maybe they did ask Palak and she couldn’t attend for some reason.
@@reemtri *sigh* you don't get my point do you? Why is it so wrong to represent a person that truly grew up with that dish? I didn't say a fusion biryani made by another ethnicity would be bad, but if you're gonna show actual biryani then at least go back to its basic and the people. For instance palak the other day made the fish and chips recipe, yes I understand she's British but she isn't from that region originally so what's wrong with placing an English level 3 chef to cook that dish, it would represent the culture of the dish and the people. Same goes for this Biryani. At first I was already annoyed with this level 3 chef being the creator of "diversity kitchen" and then she made it worst by adding her own recipe, recipe that literally went astray from what is known as Biryani.
@@reemtri because America's way of portraying diversity is actually a mash up of a mess of cultural identity, they don't want to be a "straight" diversity showcase, they wanna be the "woke" diversity instead. Hence you get this kind of crap.
@@forcehucos2429 It's a far cry from the Bengali biryani, traditionally our biryani is almost entirely white, what she made honestly looks more like 'khichudi' which is another hearty rice dish from south Asia
As a Hyderabadi I just wanna say that I have never cringed (and cried) this much in my life. Whatever y’all made isku biryani nakko bolo, Khuda ke waaste 😭😭😭
Level 2 was at least a peson that's from a région that consumes the dish, level 3 is just a black woman that got picked by this channel so they can be deemed as "woke" with diversity.
Level 3 calls it "Beerunny" and has actually the most UN-authentic version. Why wasn't Palak the level 3? She does every Indian dish and it's always perfect. Those fermented fries are so killer. I hope this won't become the norm with this channel.

I have watched many of the shows you guys have out, seeing the Biryani one I was honestly surprised to say the least. - I am an American (Cherokee) granted I play cricket on a Indian cricket team. I personally enjoy making Biryani which I first learned of by way of my teammates.. I will not be as harsh as some of the comments. But I will say this.. You have done what no country or leader has ever done.. You have united the whole of the sub continent against you over this.. This is not a knock at Danielle but at you the epicsurious - Biryani uses rice. If you are asked to make an airplane your not going to show up and make a truck. What you guys failed to understand is that SO many cultures in this part of the world live on this dish. And they know NO ONE who makes it with that grain.. Using it makes something else not Biryani . SMH - I share the feeling of insult as this was a bad idea. You have a pro chef who is Indian - you could have asked her to review this before you uploaded it..
Stephen tried to make a version of Biriyani as he understood it (and he did it well). Rinku was of course flawless. Danielle is why theives get rich, saints get shot, and God don't answer prayers a lot.
The level 2 chef obviously made the one closer to the real thing, she had all the techniques down. A few odd choices were used but overall it was fine. And the dough seal is always nice to see, traditionally biryani is a pressure cooked dish and pots were sealed with dough to create a tight seal, even if you use pressure cookers(I don't recommend) you'd still benefit from some dough for biryani. I really don't know what the hell level 3 made but I can tell you that no one in this country would call that a biryani
What exactly is this dish. I'd never heard of and I THOUGHT, this video would show me it. But after looking at the comments apparently I still don't know what it is haha.
Bruh u got 4 separate post. Lol u know this channels cooks mess up alot of foods. I watch for laughs usually. But im sorry they messed up a staple for you.
@Ayesha A That sounds amazing. I'm sorry this video kinda butchered the dish for a lot of you /: Typically the videos are pretty decent, but I think this is the one I've seen the most backlash on
@@Nocreativenamehere you can watch a channel called 'Spice eats' they have a video called "simple chicken biryani for beginners." It's very easy to follow, even though it's an easy form of Biryani, you'll understand how Biryani is made:) You can try making it some time, have a nice day!
I saw it and I got a heart attack. Legit everytime we make biryani the only thing we want to see is a dry and consistent texture but all that water bro legit made me die internally. Looked liike soaking wet news paper.
We do not have blasphemy laws in India, so we'll pass the Level 3 chef over to our lovely neighbors, Pakistan. They know how to deal with these hazards.
There are multiple types of Biriyani through out whole Indian subcontinent and they all all have different techniques of cooking to the choice of protein, but they share one common thing...Rice.
Yup. Exactly. She knows nothing about Indian cuisine and probably nothing about any cuisine. She only knows how to cater corporate events in America so their employees can feel good about eating at “diversity kitchen”. Horrendous.
@@hellohello9400 exactly. She doesn’t know about cooking in general. Calling her a chef is like dissing every single chef that worked hard to gain their skills
Now I know why Italians gets pissed of when an idiot puts olive oil into perfectly cooked pasta Seeing biriyani butchered I making me feel scream inside my mind
There's some instances of level 3 chefs messed up like the ramen one (it's pretty bad on traditional level but for American it's passable), grilled cheese (he makes croque madame instead), mashed potato (the dude literally smoke some potato), and also the pizza (his ratio is kinda off), but all of them are nowhere near this messed up
As a person from hyderabad, who has loved this channel for like months now, i have to say this is the greatest massacre video on the original biryani recipe, i have seen until now omfg.
@@H0lyMoley yea. This episode pained me as I've spent a few years learning how to make the perfect biryani, it's a dish I enjoy and it hurt to see them butcher it here. Nothing against the level 1 and 2 chefs, level 1 is obviously supposed to be the noob and had a great personality, level 2 knew lots of traditional things and made more of a southern indian biryani while I prefer northern but level 3 was something else. Nothing against her and I'm sure it tasted good but it's a crime to call that biryani
@@rudrasingh6354 they wouldn't care, America is all about being "woke", Biryani recipe's is black people's culture too 🙄 as they'll say Even I as a non-westerner, it was painful for me to watched that episode of fish and chips and the level 3 chef was an Indian.
@@rudrasingh6354 if I were to attempt to make an authentic biryani, what meat would you suggest? When I googled, all the recipes said chicken, but I wasn’t sure if there was something else you would suggest?
Basically everyone watch the Level 2 chef here, she knows what she’s doing. just forget whatever monstrosity the “Level 3” chef is creating. Whatever that atrocity with freekah is, it’s not biryani.
Ibby I’ve had raita with fruit added, that’s nothing new. One pot variation is also nothing new. Using caramelized (instead of fried) onions and freekah (instead of rice) however, are not acceptable variations. Biryani is not supposed to be chewy.
Ibby I don’t make mine that way, but I’ve had it multiple times by aunties in the past who did add fruit, and it was delicious. I don’t usually see carrot in it, but always cucumber.
"Beerany" without basmati rice? Level 3 absolutely butchered this. Didn't do her homework or research, Indian/pakistani food deserves the same respect and research as any other. Level 1 and 2 were fun tho. Whenever y'all make cultural food or a specific dish from a country maybe try to get a level 3 chef of that ethnicity.
@Zasia Zubair yeah you’re right, sorry I wasn’t sure what the group was, thats why I said desi (also I say bengali cuz its what my bengali family said growing up)
I agree with u bro! but for the record biryani can be made with lots of different kinds of rice depending on region. Jeera samba and sona masoori are common in addition to basmati
Even an pio could mess up an biryani dish The problem is not with the person but the ignorance and lack of research Nobody is entitled to make a certain type of food
The level 3 chef is not completely wrong here, she just didn't name the dish properly. Here in the subcontinent, what she made is called 'BAWASIR" (sometimes Bawaseer), not beer-any. 🥰👍 Edit: for the non-South Asians, look it up guys its a wonderful thing 🤗
I trust level 2 the most. She seems the most reliable. Stephen is just there for our entertainment. The moment level 3 said she wasn’t using rice, I was done with her. I’m sure what she made was delicious but that’s like the main ingredient she just decided not to use. That like making shepherds pie without any potatoes. It just doesn’t work.
It seems like you don't know Indian cooking. Just because Rinku is Indian you trust her cooking. But this is coming from an Indian. And her cooking is so different and not traditional at all. Many Indians don't even think about using orange juice, pomegranates, plums and rose water in a Biryani or a Kebab. What she cooks is not traditional Indian recipe or maybe it's Bengali style. But definitely it what's cooked accross India.
@@MK-il7hu I assure you that Rinku's biryani is not traditional Bengali lmao. We never use shrimp first of all. It's more what you'd expect from an extremely fancy over-the-top palace, not a homely biryani
For those who are raging over the fact that level 2 put plums(aloo Bukhara)it is correct ingredient for kacchi biryani which is a bangladeshi(country next to India with similar culture) biryani
@@ishanbajpai6940 It is called kacchi biriyani as the cook also mentioned in the beginning. Kacchi word came from "Kacche" or "Kacha" in bengali which means Raw. Since raw meat is cooked with rice, thus the name.
The only person who made Biryani in this video is Rinku in Level 2. What the heck was that in level 3! It resembled home-made cattle fodder. (Level 1 is excused because he made some kind of Khichdi which is atleast edible)
@@shahranhussain6037 basically where i am from, veg biriyani is made by preparing the veg gravy and rice sperately... Both semicooked. Then grave and rice are layered on top of each other and then kept on dum... In pulao, you just put veggies, ungrounded garam masala kind of fry them, add rice and done..
In surprised level 3 didn't put chili jam in the biryani, as she definitely graduated from Jamie olive oil's cooking school. She probably uses his cookbook too Eww
The level one chef forgetting to peel the potatoes AND the carrots reminds me of myself when I'm writing an exam and I get the first question wrong and that just leads to the next 4 to go wrong as well
As an Indian all I can say is what level 1 made was sabzi chawal(vegetable gravy mixed with rice) what level 2 made was an ok-ok biryani what level 3 made was NOT biryani
For the Indians, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis out there... I feel you. This Brazilian here doesn't know much about biryani (I tried making it once), but I know that the Level 3 chef's dish can be anything, but never a biryani. FREEKEH?!
What has been seen, can’t be unseen! Oh the horror! 😓 The only good thing that came out of this video is that, it brought the Indians, Bangladeshis and Pakistanis together 😅❤️
For the love of biryani.. ha ha ha.. but absolutely one day I would love to travel to both Bangladesh and Pakistan just to meet the lovely ppl and to eat the biryani with those scrumptious curries..
Biryani is different all over the Indian sub continent and differ city by city. The ingredients depends on the region and each region provide a special unique biryani of its own. Rinku aunty’a biryani may look unusual because Hyderbadi biryani gets most of the spotlight but it’s a Bengali biryani. There is no one true Biryani. But all these diversity has one thing in common: RICE. JUST USE LONG GRAIN BASMATI RICE!!!!?
What the level 3 chef did can be compared to making a cake without flour. Sure you might call it a cake but deep down you know it isn't a cake. Replacing a core aspect of biryani, basmati rice is like making pasta without the pasta. And don't get me started on the rest of the stuff Atleast the level 1 guy was fun to watch
Steven was so funny and don't mention how they all pronounced biryani wrong Edit thanks for the 8 likes ive never got more than 3 likes thanks guys !!!!!
Basmati isnt necessary in biryani , even in india many parts of the country dont use basmati they use selam and many other type of rice grain to make biryani. Basmati isnt necessary in biryani
@@gamingpath4787 You need to update your knowledge.... Basmati is necessary for Biryani... No indian calls it biryani if it doesnt have basmati.... Its just some kinda fried rice or khichadi then...

It’s like making egg fried rice but swapping the rice with couscous.
Burrito is edible. This.........isnt
when you make biryani, you dont look at "great sources of fiber". You make it with basmati rice

You actually can. Basmati is a Highland variety that's used in North Indian biryanis. Tamil biryanis ude jeeraga samba rice which is short grained and takes on the flavor of the spices rather than have it's own unique flavor like Basmati.
Rinku made pulao carrots

Also maybe they did ask Palak and she couldn’t attend for some reason.
@@reemtri *sigh* you don't get my point do you? Why is it so wrong to represent a person that truly grew up with that dish? I didn't say a fusion biryani made by another ethnicity would be bad, but if you're gonna show actual biryani then at least go back to its basic and the people.
For instance palak the other day made the fish and chips recipe, yes I understand she's British but she isn't from that region originally so what's wrong with placing an English level 3 chef to cook that dish, it would represent the culture of the dish and the people. Same goes for this Biryani. At first I was already annoyed with this level 3 chef being the creator of "diversity kitchen" and then she made it worst by adding her own recipe, recipe that literally went astray from what is known as Biryani.
@@reemtri because America's way of portraying diversity is actually a mash up of a mess of cultural identity, they don't want to be a "straight" diversity showcase, they wanna be the "woke" diversity instead. Hence you get this kind of crap.

I personally enjoy making Biryani which I first learned of by way of my teammates.. I will not be as harsh as some of the comments. But I will say this.. You have done what no country or leader has ever done.. You have united the whole of the sub continent against you over this.. This is not a knock at Danielle but at you the epicsurious - Biryani uses rice. If you are asked to make an airplane your not going to show up and make a truck. What you guys failed to understand is that SO many cultures in this part of the world live on this dish. And they know NO ONE who makes it with that grain.. Using it makes something else not Biryani . SMH - I share the feeling of insult as this was a bad idea. You have a pro chef who is Indian - you could have asked her to review this before you uploaded it..

Rinku aunty’a biryani may look unusual because Hyderbadi biryani gets most of the spotlight but it’s a Bengali biryani. There is no one true Biryani. But all these diversity has one thing in common: RICE.
JUST USE LONG GRAIN BASMATI RICE!!!!?
Noone:
Level 3 chef: Bee-Raani. BAssMaaTi.
My Indian ears are shook lmao. I need an "Indian Uncle Roger" to react to this!
Level 3 chef said garam masala as grama masala lol
Draining the rice 😂😂😂
yassss
What the level 3 chef did can be compared to making a cake without flour. Sure you might call it a cake but deep down you know it isn't a cake. Replacing a core aspect of biryani, basmati rice is like making pasta without the pasta. And don't get me started on the rest of the stuff
Atleast the level 1 guy was fun to watch
Steven was so funny and don't mention how they all pronounced biryani wrong
Edit thanks for the 8 likes ive never got more than 3 likes thanks guys !!!!!
The moment she didn't use basmati, I just tuned out her whole recipe. Is there an Indian version of Uncle Roger that can roast her?
Basmati isnt necessary in biryani , even in india many parts of the country dont use basmati they use selam and many other type of rice grain to make biryani.
Basmati isnt necessary in biryani
@@gamingpath4787 You need to update your knowledge.... Basmati is necessary for Biryani... No indian calls it biryani if it doesnt have basmati.... Its just some kinda fried rice or khichadi then...
@@aadityapawar3229 have u ever ate a biryani outside north india?
Damn I appreciate my mother's cooking 100x more now.
Fr, I thought my mom's Biryani was okayish, but now it's definitely better than all these cooks.
I have never been so disappointed by a level 3 chef..
