Biryanis
Biryanis are aromatic rice dishes made by layering long-grain basmati rice with marinated meat, seafood, or vegetables, cooked with whole spices, herbs, and saffron. Known for their rich flavors and fragrant aroma, biryanis balance spice, warmth, and subtle sweetness, often finished with fried onions and ghee. Popular varieties include Hyderabadi, Lucknowi, Kolkata, and Malabar biryani.
