Lucknowi Biryani For Special Lunch
Biryani
is
a
craze
in
India
and
many
other
countries
in
the
Eastern
part
of
the
world.
There
are
many
famous
types
of
biryani
and
Lucknowi
biryani
is
one
of
the
popular
Indian
varieties
of
this
dish.
Biryani
freaks
would
agree
that
like
all
other
kinds
of
Awadhi
food,
this
biryani
recipe
can
be
characterised
by
its
delicate
flavours.
Which
is
why,
this
is
an
ideal
recipe
for
lunch
on
a
lazy
Sunday
Lucknowi
biryani
is
not
overtly
spicy
like
other
biryani
recipes
(for
example,
Hyderabadi
Biryani).
The
spices
used
in
this
biryani
are
subtle.
The
rice
cooks
in
the
stock
of
the
meat
soaking
in
its
rich
flavour.
In
this
biryani
recipe,
we
are
using
mutton.
You
can
try
making
Lucknowi
biryani
with
chicken
too;
just
remember
to
adjust
the
cooking
time.
