A delicious ,flavourful and rich one pot mutton biriyani in tamilnadu style.
Its biriyani challenge in muslim food bloggers group for this month. There are variety of biriyani across the world. If you peek into any cuisines in the world they have their own biriyani in their own traditional ways.. when I saw the challenge as biriyani I started to browse various variety of biriyani across world that i have not yet tasted but then I thought it would be better if I share biriyani that we prepare in our areas that may be new version for others.. As am from borders of tamil nadu and Kerala I have experienced both of their biriyani’s . Kerala style biriyani is layered biriyani in which rice and gravy is prepared separately and then layered whereas in Tamilnadu style both rice and gravy/masala is mixed together and cook that adds more taste to the biriyani..I have already posted many variety of biriyani in my blog. check out here
This biriyani is very simple yet very flavourful that flavour of the biriyani comes from the onion tomato gravy and biriyani masala used .. If you really wants the good biriyani then never compromise with the base masala..If you reduce the masala then the biriyani would become dry.. Now let’s get into the recipe.
