About Biryani

[ultimate_spacer height=”22″ height_on_tabs=”22″ height_on_mob=”22″]

The origin of biryani is uncertain. In North India, it is traditionally associated with the Mughlai cuisine of Delhi and the Awadhi cuisine of Lucknow; In South India, it is traditionally associated with the Hyderabadi cuisine.

The word “biryani” is derived from Persian language. One theory is that it originates from “birinj”, the Persian word for rice. Another theory is that it derives from “biryan” or “beriyan”

There is a theory about the Mughals having brought biryani to India, but another theory claims that the dish was known in India before Babur came to India.

About Idly

[ultimate_spacer height=”22″ height_on_tabs=”22″ height_on_mob=”22″]

Idly is a traditional breakfast in Indian households. Idli is a savory cake that is popular throughout India and neighboring countries like Sri Lanka. The cakes are usually two to three inches in diameter and are made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented black lentils (de-husked) and rice. The fermentation process breaks down the starches so that they are more readily metabolized by the body.

A variant of Idli known as sanna is very popular amongst the Goans and other Konkani people. Another variant known as Enduri Pitha is very popular in Odisha.
