Biriyani : It's so yummy

I have never prepared Biriyani at home. It is not a difficult dish but takes a great deal of time to prepare properly. I do, however, prepare other 'one pot' rice and meat dishes (my favourite being one from Azerbaijan which is a whole leg of lamb cooked gently with saffron and other spices and surrounded by rice). The Biriyanis which are served in restaurants here normally consist only of the meat sauce served separately from the rice. They are either not true Muglai Biriyanis or they are served this way because it is far easier to ladle out portions of the sauce as required than to cook the dish in layers of rice and sauce as it should be. They are considered 'medium' in terms of heat, as most Northern Indian dishes tend to be, and, though chicken or vegetable biriyanis are common, I have never found a restaurant offering goat meat (though lamb would be a reasonably close alternative). Goat is a meat which is very rarely seen in Britain and I haven't seen mutton for years, either!

I love Biriyani too, my favourite is king prawn biriyani, I always choose it when I eat out at an Indian restaurant! Here is a link for the recipe!! http://indianfood.about.com/od/ricerecipes/r/mughlaibiriyani.htm

Hi, rollylolly. I have never heard of this dish before. It sounds very delicious. I love spicy food from time to time. I am curious to know how this meal will taste though. I have learned something new today. Thank you for sharing your yummy meal with us all.

I too like Biryani very much and often prepare it in my home.My husband just loves it.I usually make chicken Biryani because other type of meats we do not eat. There are ready to make Biryani pastes available in the market which we can add with chicken/meat to make biryani.But fresh spices always add to its taste and flavor.

Well I don't know this dish but I'm always open to learn something new. Who knows. Maybe it will be the best dish I have ever eaten?

I also love biryani rice. They serve it in some arabic and indian restaurants and they also make flavored seasoning ready to mix with rice. I think that it is an interesting recipe for rice.

I don't know how to prepare biryani, but i do love it. My Indian family friend always prepre chicken biryani each time we visit them at home. But they have to lessen the spicy and make it lesser hot ( i can't take too hot foods) I also like samosa and chai- oh i love it jaiho®

Honestly, I just heard about it but it sounds yummy and interesting! I might search for a recipe about this.
