How to Make Kolkata Biryani



         
    Biryani, what can we say about this dish? It is already been talked  so much. Biryani has its own long journey from Middle East to India. There are many different  variants of Biryanis cooked throughout this world. Only in India, there is almost 15 or 16 different style of makingKolkata Biryani.The biryani I made is the Kolkata style.  This particular type has evolved from Awadhi/Lucknowi style. When the last Nawab (king) of Awadh, Wajid Ali shah  was exiled to Kolkata, along came his personal chef, so did the Biryani.Being a Bong, I love the Kolkata style Biryani.  I combined several different recipes to make this Mutton Biryani. One of the oldest biryani restaurants in the city, this one is also easy on the pocket. Unlike authentic Kolkata biryanis, this one doesn’t come with potato or egg, but the flavours of the long grained rice more make up for that. We recommend the Mutton Chap with Mutton Biryani — a perfect combination.Kolkata’s best biryani joints Neither spicy nor too heavy, the biryanis from this city are delicate, flavoursome and utterly delicious, usually served with potato.

     Kolkata today offers a wide variety of cuisines — many of them time-honoured. The history of this city has significantly influenced its culinary scene and helped in the creation of this diversity — the East India Company brought in the English and the Continental food, the Chinese settlers (who earlier ran their tanneries) introduced their cuisine and Mughlai cuisine was brought in from Awadh by Wajid Ali Shah — to name a few. And of course, the food of the natives — the Indian yet  very unique Bengali cuisine. Being associated to a city such as this has great influences on one’s gastronomic habits, preferences and cravings.  So next time you see a Bengali yearning for some Biryani and Kababs instead of fish, don’t be surprised.The fact that Kolkata is a low-cost city made it even more attractive.For More Other Recipes like Chicken Recipes,Hyderabadi biryani Recipes visit our official webpage
