Gayathri Tirthapura  \nKabini Amin  \nDum Dum-a-Dum Biryani! Author: Gayathri Tirthapura Illustrator: Kabini Amin  \nBasha and his sister Sainabi live in Hyderabad with their parents. Basha loves food. What he loves more is to cook food. 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...”Mmmm!” Basha loves the tempting aromas that swirl around Ammi’s kitchen as the dhals, rice, vegetables, meat,  \nand 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. Ammi’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.”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 you  \nthink we can have dinner at your place? There are 24 of us-and 4 are vegetarian.” Basha 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 to do it? He feels nervous .  \nHe opens the fridge and sees many of his favourite 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!” Basha has watched Ammi cook Vegetable  \nDum 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 usually cooks it for! *(4+ 4+ 4+ 4+ 4+ 4 = 24 .Or, 4x 6 = 24 )”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?","cbCaiq9JLUfQFvbV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq9JLUfQFvbV","pdf",1334941,41,"English","en",105,"# Story Setup\n## Basha’s Love for Cooking\n# The Dinner Challenge\n## Ammi’s Illness and the Call\n## Preparing for 24 Guests","[{\"question\":\"Where do Basha and Sainabi live, and what does Basha love most?\",\"answer\":\"Basha and Sainabi live in Hyderabad with their parents.
