*Step 1: Prep eggs + rice* 🥚🍚

*Step 2: Make the masala* 🔥
1. Heat oil/ghee. Fry onions 🧅 till golden brown + crispy. Remove half for garnish - this is "birista" and it's key!
2. In same oil, add ginger-garlic 🧄 + green chilies. Cook 30 sec.
3. Add tomatoes 🍅 + all powder spices. Cook till oil separates.
4. Add yogurt 🥛 + mint + coriander 🌿. Cook 2 min. This is your biryani masala base.

*Step 3: Layer + Dum cook* 🍲
1. In heavy pot: spread half the masala. Place fried eggs 🥚 on top.
2. Add half the 70% cooked rice. Sprinkle birista + mint + coriander + saffron milk.
3. Repeat: remaining masala + rice + birista on top.
4. Seal pot with foil/lid. Cook on LOW heat 🔽 "dum" for 20-25 min. The steam finishes cooking rice + flavors marry.
