Culinary notes:
Biryani is a rice-based dish made with layers of curried meat and rice. Given its use of adornments and luxurious finishes, it’s no surprise that biryani has roots in Persian cuisine. Deriving from the Persian word ‘Birian’, Biryani means fried before cooking. Biryani was originally created by the Queen of the Mughal Empire in the 1600s to feed malnourished Indian Soldiers with carbohydrates, protein, and immune-boosting spices in one dish. Cooked with meat or if you prefer, vegetables like carrots, sweet potato or eggplant for a vegetarian meal. You can learn more about Pakistan food here.
