Vegetable Biryani
Our Mauritian Biryani (or Briyani as we pronounce it in Mauritius!) is much closer to the Hyderabadi Biryani style of cooking (originating from South India). The rice is layered with the spices, marinated vegetables, golden fried caramelized onion, ghee, garlic, ginger, fresh coriander, fresh mint, potatoes, vegetables, premium saffron and more ingredients. The end result, of our biryanis, is not very ‘ghee’ rich, as the different spices used do all the talking!
