Kacchi Biryani is a regal delicacy originating from the culinary traditions of Mughal and Nawabi kitchens, now beloved across Bengal, especially in Dhaka. This fragrant rice dish is uniquely prepared by layering raw, marinated meat—typically tender goat or lamb—with aromatic, long-grain basmati or kalijira rice. The meat is infused with rich spices, yogurt, saffron, and browned onions, then slow-cooked together in a sealed pot (dum) to perfection. The result is a heavenly, melt-in-your-mouth experience: each grain of rice is fluffy and flavorful, delicately absorbing the juices of the marinated meat. Crispy fried onions, prunes, and a subtle hint of kewra or rose water elevate the aroma and taste. Often served with a side of zesty salad, borhani, or plain yogurt, Kacchi Biryani is not just food—it's a celebration on a plate, traditionally enjoyed during weddings, Eid, and other grand festivities.
