Complicated process

Read this text: “The process may seem complicated but actually it is not really, so long as you prepare things in advance and know what has to be done in what order. Some of the things you need you may already have, but others, of course, you may need to get. They are not always readily available and when they are they can be quite expensive. But the final result will make all the effort and cost worthwhile.” Did you have difficulty understanding it? Then add this headline: Cooking Chicken Biryani. Now read it again.
