EASY AND HEALTHY PRAWNS BIRYANI
Biryani is a mixed rice dish with its origins among the Muslims of the Indian subcontinent. It is made with Indian spices, rice, and meat (chicken, beef, goat, pork, lamb, prawn, or fish), and sometimes, in addition, eggs and/or potatoes in certain regional varieties. Biryani is popular throughout the Indian subcontinent. It is also prepared in other regions such as Iran and Iraq. It is a dish that has acquired a niche for itself in South Asian cuisine.
