Tips

Kofta:

I made the Paneer Koftas the size of Lemons. You could make them smaller in the size of a Grape or a Gooseberry.
The Water in Paneer and Aloo is sufficient to make Koftas. You could add a tsp of Water if necessary.
When you add the Koftas to the Oil, leave them for a minute without touching them. Then turn them over to slowly fry so that they don't break.

Sona Masoori Rice:

If you want to make this Biryani with regular Rice, then cook up to 80% and add another 3 tbsp of Water and Dum it for 2 minutes more.

What is cooking to 80%:

When you put a grain of Rice in your mouth, you should feel the softness outside and a bit of hard grain inside. That is to say, a stage where another five minutes of cooking will cook the grain fully.
