Mutton Dum Biryani is a layered biryani made with cooked basmati rice in a rich mutton gravy with saffron and herbs. This version is a complete meal by itself and makes a wonderful meal for weekend.
I have another version of Mutton Dum Biryani, which is prepared differently. Since we always end up making biryanis for the weekend, we do try new versions sometimes. My kids are happy with their favorite recipes, though sometimes they are adventurous to try the new ones. This version was different and liked by all. I always click pictures when I cook a new version.
If its liked then share on the blog. However, this time I had planned for a new Non Veg thali and yet I wasn’t prepared in terms of having a complete meal that one say if from starters to sweets are served. I must say my kids are not keen on starters when I serve biryanis. They don’t mind ice creams, and won’t take any other Indian sweet.
We made a mutton roast and a gravy and completely forgot about a sweet. Not that anybody missed it. I was particular about the Thali. Anyway this is yet another delicious method of making biryani though we do use almost very similar ingredients in this biryani too.
This is for Day 4 under Regional Thalis showcasing Nonveg thali with Mutton Dum Biryani. On SYL, its yet another Veg Thali.
