Lucknowi mutton biryani
India · South Asia
- Short description
- This biryani layers rice and mutton, then seals the pot so aroma and steam finish the dish together.
- Ingredients
- Basmati rice layered with mutton, yogurt, ghee, fried onion, saffron, ginger, garlic, whole spices, and floral water.
- Cultural note
- The style is known for restraint: fragrance, tender meat, and separated rice grains matter as much as spice intensity.
- Common misconception
- Not every biryani is designed to be fiery; this version often emphasizes aroma and texture.
