Flavors You Can't Resist!

The dum ritual

Sealed. Steamed. Served.

Every biryani follows the same four-step ritual it has for generations.

  1. 01

    Marinate overnight

    Meat rests in yogurt, saffron and whole spices until the flavors settle deep.

  2. 02

    Layer the basmati

    Half-cooked rice is layered over the marinade with fried onions and mint.

  3. 03

    Seal with dough

    The pot is closed under a purdah of dough — no steam escapes, no flavor either.

  4. 04

    Slow-steam on dum

    Low coals finish the pot. It's opened only at your table's order.
