Dindigul Biriyani

Description

Dindigul Biriyani is a unique and flavorful rice dish that hails from Dindigul, a city in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Known for its distinct taste and preparation style, this biriyani is made using seeraga samba rice, a short-grain variety that adds a unique texture and aroma. The dish typically features tender chunks of meat (often chicken or mutton) marinated in a blend of spices, curd, and lemon, which gives it a tangy and slightly spicy flavor. Unlike other biriyanis, Dindigul Biriyani uses less oil and is lighter, with a focus on the natural flavors of the ingredients. It is often garnished with mint and served with boiled eggs or raita, making it a beloved dish in South Indian cuisine.
