Thank you so much. You’ve literally brought home , hands down I haven’t had this authentic taste in the whole UK in the last 5 years. The smell of amber biriyani while I stared cooking brought me memories from our family functions.

Always been an admirer of Cookd channel on YouTube and here I tried your product, I’ll be honest with my review tho. Making biryani was made so easy when you got hectic schedule. I really wanna appreciate the app integration with cooking, customizing the serving portion were really helpful, kudos to it! About the taste yes it tasted good like an actually restaurant Briyani but it match with the taste of Ambur tbh. May be you can work on the a little, overall cooking experience with cookd I would rate 8/10.
