About the Book:
Biryani is not just a comfort food; it is also considered the king of foods! Renowned for its rich flavor and distinct aroma, it stands out as a dish that can satiate and satisfy anyone's hunger.
From the time when the Mughal queen Mumtaz ordered her royal chef to prepare it for her army, to the present day where chefs across the country have developed their own unique styles, biryani has earned a special place in the hearts of both children and adults.
But did you know that Biryani can also be a great teacher?
Indeed, biryani offers valuable lessons on management. Although it is often enjoyed as a communal experience at the dinner table, it holds insights applicable to various aspects of leadership.
In this book, Chef Harpal takes you on a journey through the world of biryani and demonstrates how this single dish can pave the way for anyone to become a great leader. Chef Harpal delves into topics such as avoiding overcooking, preventing employee burnout, fostering adaptability, crafting effective strategies, harnessing the power of brown onions and salt, upholding kitchen and workplace ethics, and developing both short-term and long-term plans for organizations.
