Does the title look humorous?Well,this is a
recipe innovated by me . In regular the process
of ‘dum’ or slow cooking is done after adding
rice ,so only one ‘dum’.
But in my recipe I cooked the chicken in the
‘dum’ process ,and the rice too in the same.
So two ‘ dum ‘ to make this recipe .
By now ,you would have known the birth of the
title to this recipe .
