Biryani made me more greedy
Is there any food that tempts you
Its smell, texture, just melts you
All your worry fades away just by its glance
For me, it’s a plate of biryani and Coca-Cola, clan
If someone asks me to describe one word for biryani, for me it’s ‘love’. Unlike Hyderabadi biryani, our Kolkata biryani has aloo.
Soft, moist aloo, mix with rice, add some chicken, a few onions — biryani will be a delight.
Just like buttermilk is served in South India. Our biryani is served along with Ghol — it’s like buttermilk, same recipe, but pudina and coriander are the extra ingredients added.
At the end, a dessert is a must. Phirni is the trust.
Whenever I made up my mind that I would start a diet, this delicacy enters my life, and everything feel divine.
But things are fine, until and unless I stand on the weighing scale, and nothing seems right!
In my opinion, every biryani has its flavour — whether it’s from a local store or a 3-star restaurant, homemade, or served at a dawaat (invitation).
But no matter how much biryani I indulge in, at the end of the day, my heart yearns for my favourite daal and bhaat ( rice and dal). Have it with aloo bharta ( mashed potatoes), along with some gosht (meat), and everything will feel nice.
