He helps his Ammi in the kitchen everyday. He likes to watch her hands as they chop the brightly-coloured vegetables-plump red tomatoes, crisp green capsicums, firm orange carrots, fleshy pink onions...  \n“Mmmm!” Basha loves the tempting aromas that swirl around Ammi's kitchen as the dhals, rice, vegetables, meat, and spices change colour on the stove. He hopes that Ammi will give him a chance to cook a dish on his own someday.  \nOne day, Basha and Sainabi come back from school to find Ammi asleep with high fever. Baba is not yet back from his office.  \nAmmi’s mobile rings. Basha sees that Ammi’s best friend Saira aunty is calling and answers it quickly. He does not want to wake Ammi up.  \n“I’m on my way back home from a wedding with lots of friends,” Saira aunty explains. She sounds exhausted.“We will be passing by your home in about two hours'time. Do  \nyou think we can have dinner at your place? There are 24 of us-and 4 are vegetarian. \"  \nBasha knows that Ammi would love to see them. He and Sainabi are very fond of Saira aunty too.“You are most welcome,\" Basha says.  \nHe feels excited as he hangs up the phone. This is his chance to cook a dish on his own! But will he be able todo it? He feels nervous. He opens the fridge and sees many of his  \nfavourite vegetables-cauliflower, peas, beans. He can also see a bunch of fresh mint leaves peeking out from under the carrots. \"Yes!\" he thinks to himself. \"I have everything I need for a yummy Vegetable Dum Biryani!\"  \nBasha has watched Ammi cook Vegetable Dum Biryani many times for their family of 4. But he now has to cook for 24 people! That is six times* the number of people Ammi  \nusually cooks it for!  \n*(4+4+4+4+4+4 = 24. Or, 24/4 = 6)  \n\"That means,\" thinks Basha to himself, feeling a little nervous, \"I have to cook the biryani six times!\" Would he have enough time to do that?","cbCaigS8mhffFa76","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigS8mhffFa76","pdf",59778929,25,"English","en",105,"# Story Setup: Basha’s Love of Cooking\n## The Call for a Group Dinner\n## Planning and Preparing the Vegetable Dum Biryani\n## The Challenge of Cooking for 24 Guests","[{\"question\":\"Who are the main characters in Dum Dum-a-Dum Biryani!?\",\"answer\":\"Basha and his sister Sainabi live with their parents in Hyderabad.
