An invaluable contribution of the Muslim culture to the overall food culture has to be the Biryani! This flavorful blend of spices, meat, vegetables and rice took the “preparation of rice in different ways” to a whole new level! Originating amongst the Muslims in the northern India, Biryani was loved and accepted by all! So much so, that different regions across didn’t just adopt the dish but made it their own, by giving it a distinct regional taste! Biryani cooked in the East India especially in Kolkata is cooked with potatoes and is completely different from the one prepared in Hyderabad, while the Biryani cooked in Delhi has a complete different taste compared to the one cooked in Lucknow! This beloved dish is not just restaurant exclusive anymore either; people cook it at their homes too, and how! Today we bring you a tasty and easy Biryani recipe to try at your home!
