Basmati Rice
Good quality basmati rice is essential to making a delicious biryani. “Bas” in Hindi language means “aroma” and “mati” means “full of,” hence the word Basmati — or “full of aroma.” The rice is aged naturally in the sun and then put through a gentle milling process where any broken grains are removed. This step is essential to the final texture of the rice as broken rice grains release starch when cooked which causes the basmati to become sticky. The level of care taken to produce this ingredient means that all rice dishes are guaranteed to have delicate fluffy texture and subtle but delicious flavour.

Today, biryani is a beloved dish in many countries, including India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. It is often served at weddings, festivals, and other special occasions, and has become a staple of South Asian cuisine. Biryani has a lengthy and fascinating history. The Mughal Empire introduced the dish to the Indian subcontinent in the 16th century, and it is thought to have its roots in Persia (modern-day Iran).
