Biriyanis are definetly every ones personal favourite.Here we prepare biriyanis on most sundays and every one enjoys having it.Kozhikode biriyani is one of the most famous dishes in kerala. Its taste and flavour can never be held by any other dish.Biriyanis can be made with fish,chicken mutton,beef anything accoring to ones preferance.According to my preferance i would go for kozhikode biriyani at the topmost and the next would be the hyderabadi biriyani.The fire cooked hyderabadi biriyani gives an authentic taste for it. Now let us see how a mutton biriyani is being made.The mutton has to be well cooked otherwise it may not taste that good and it would be in a rubbery form.
