Biryani comes from the Farsi word “Biryan” which means to roast and was first discovered in the Persian Gulf. In India, however, Biryani first originated in the Mughal era under the courtship of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan’s wife Mumtaz Mahal (1593-1631), who is known to have inspired the dish. She asked her chefs to prepare a dish which combined meat and rice. Her chefs then prepared rice in ghee (clarified butter), cooked and marinated the meat in spices till it became tender and delicately seasoned the dish with saffron, creating a culinary masterpiece – Biryani!
