Directions
Lamb Biryani With Saffron Rice,Biryani is basically made with meat, chicken, fish, eggs and mixed with many spices and then a layer of white rice is placed on top to cook; sometimes Saffron threads are added as well. Biryani originated in Southern Asia and made by Muslim chefs. Today there are many variations and it has been adopted by many countries, including India where it originated in Hyderabad (Hyderabadi Biryani). Further, it was created at the request of British Officers who wanted a fast meal for their troops. The famous Nizams Biryani (from Calcutta) has become one of the best Biryanis in India and chefs throughout the country strive to match Nizams special dishes. Since Biryanis are often served at banquets, this recipe is a very fancy version.
