Biryani Rice

Biryani Rice for weekend match with meat barbecue. I tasted my first Biryani rice in a Persian resto in Makati and fell in love with it right away.

I introduced it to my wife and kids and they love it too. Cooking Biryani rice is almost the same with Chinese or Japanese fried rice but Biryani has this ingredients that are so exotic than the usual oriental fried rice.


The usual rice used is the Basmati rice from Pakistan but any rice will do. Basmati rice is so expensive check it out in your favorite supermarket. So last weekend, we made our home cooked Biryani rice (our own version).














The ingredients are:

1. Rice (of course :P )
2. Cashew
3. Raisin
4. Cinnamon
5. Onions
6. Garlic
7. Salt

For some, you might want to add these;

1. Curry
2. Cloves

For some, shortcut is to buy Biryani paste in your favorite supermarket. :)
