      Also please do mention how long do i have to marinate the beef.Will half an hour be ok?

      Love,
      Ammu

      Hi ammu

      The tapioca should be well covered in water ie the water level should be 1/2 – 1 inch above the tapioca and for beef marination, half an hour is perfectly fine.

      I’d never heard of Kappa Biryani until last evening when I was with some friends. I was just surfing through your blog looking for a good beef ularthiyathu recipe and I came upon this.

      Looking forward to trying it out! Will let you know how it goes. Great blog!
