Biryani is a classic South Asian dish that combines fragrant rice with savory meat, vegetables, and spices. It’s a festive, crowd-pleasing dish, perfect for special occasions and family dinners alike. Paired with another flavorful icon, kebabs, this class aims to inspire your holiday gatherings with restaurant-quality home cooking!

Biryani preparation is deceptively technical; you will learn the art of layering rice, protein and/or vegetables in a pot to result in perfectly cooked textures all the way through. You’ll learn how to seal in flavors with the dum cooking method. While the biryani cooks, you’ll make two kebabs full of flavor and textures: fish and mixed vegetables. The fish, infused with flavor from the marinade, has a crispy exterior with a tender bite inside. Finely chopped vegetables combine with herbs and spices to form patties that are pan-fried, offering a crunchy and satisfying bite. Finally, two classic sauces complement the spread: cooling apple raita and zesty cilantro chutney.
