Chicken Pulusu
Chicken Pulusu or Chicken Kura as we refer to it in Telugu makes a good side dish for Biriyani. Very easy to make gravy with available pantry ingredients and doesn't take much time to make.
This Chicken gravy is quite mild and thin enough to be mixed up with the biryani. I am told it enhances the biryani taste. I trust my kids approvals. Even quite young, they are connoisseurs of such dishes.

This is made with small baby onion, it gives nice flavour and taste to the whole salan. The main thing about any salan is you have to cook till oil floats on top. It makes it look more appealing and tasty.
Veg Sherva (also known as Veg Shorba) is a spicy onion and tomato based gravy that is served as an accompaniment to Biryani and Pulao. I like to make it with Vegetarian Pulav, which is very mildly spiced and needs an accompaniment to liven it up. Of course, you could use Papad or Raita. However, sometimes you might crave something spicy to accompany the Veg Pulao and this where the the Veg Sherva help. It is very easy to make Veg Sherva and the ingredients are commonly found at home. You can make it plain as shown in this recipe or then add potatoes or chicken to it. I usually like Sherva with Pulao as I feel Biryani is already spicy and anyway, it is just too many tastes.
