Hyderabadi dum biriyani is the most popular dish. It was developed by the Mughal empires. Hyderabadi dum biriyani is commonly prepared with goat meat and made variations with chicken. It is prepared with marinated meat cooked with rice and other spices. Especially layering and dum flavour attract our taste buds. We can prepare dum biriyani with mixed vegetables, fish and eggs.
Even in Tamilnadu, there are different biriyanis available, like Chettinad biriyani, Dindukkal biriyani, Ambur biriyani, etc. every biriyani has its own unique taste. Those biriyani varieties are prepared with Jeeraka samba rice which gives a different taste as compared to basmati rice. Chettinad biriyani is served with country chicken (nattu kozhi) curry, Ambur biriyani with dhalcha is so popular. Egg dum biriyani goes well with onion raita, cucumber raita, and chicken gravy.
Notes
- While preparing egg dum biriyani, use good quality basmati rice, dum biriyani cannot be prepared with any other rice.
- Cooking rice with perfect texture is the most important thing, cook the rice until 90% done, if it is soft, it may break.
- Once done drain water completely otherwise biriyani may become watery.
- You can shallow fry or deep fry the sliced onions.
- You can add eggs according to your taste.
- Once you started layering turn the flame low.
- I have cooked in a pan directly with a low flame, you can keep the pan on tawa to avoid burning.
- I have just covered it with the lid, you can seal it with aluminium foil or wheat flour dough, or you can cover it with a lid and put some weight (with mortar and pestle) on it.
- Saffron milk is optional, you can add saffron water or you can use a pinch of orange food colour.
