Biryani is a layered and steamed rice dish and it can include any type of meat, lentil, fish or vegetable. The cooking style and recipe of biryani differ from place to place and every biryani recipe is unique in itself. Sindhi Biryani is one of the types of biryani that is very popular in India and Pakistan and one of my favorites. It is quite spicy and zesty than other varieties of biryanis. The most prominent difference is the use of sour yogurt, dried plums, and the addition of potatoes. Tomatoes are never cooked in the gravy, rather round slices are used in between the layers of rice and meat. The aroma in this version comes from the generous use of cilantro and mint, not from rose or kewra water which is common in most Mughlai biryanis. If you have tried other biryanis you will surely find this one a little different.
