Analyzing cooking steps...
Ensure the rice is only about 2/3 cooked during the boiling phase, as it will finish cooking during the steaming process.
Using a tea towel to seal the lid helps trap the steam inside, which is essential for the 'dum' cooking style.
Caramelizing the onions properly (15-20 minutes) is key to the deep flavor of the biryani.
