This fragrant rice casserole once reserved for the Royals of the Nawabs and Nizams and special occasions is now considered common dish; reflecting traditions and flavors that have evolved throughout centuries. Using beef and potatoes in the recipe is just one of many variants of biryani that is prepared in South Asia.
Trying to pin point the origins of a dish is hard enough, so I’m not going to go deep into the culinary anthropology of biryani.
