M&S Biryani Seasoning

What it is

This is a ready-to-use seasoning blend designed to impart the complex flavors of traditional biryani. It combines aromatic spices, herbs, and sometimes a base of tomatoes or yogurt to create a rich and fragrant sauce. The seasoning aims to simplify the process of making biryani, offering a convenient way to achieve authentic taste without needing to measure and combine numerous individual spices. It is a liquid preparation, making it easy to incorporate into dishes.

How people cook with it

This seasoning is perfect for quickly preparing flavorful biryani dishes at home. It can also be used to add depth to other rice-based meals or marinades.

Stir in cooked rice and mix gently to combine. Allow it to simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors meld. For other uses, you can whisk it into yogurt for a quick marinade for chicken or lamb, or stir it into a vegetable stew to add an aromatic dimension. It can also be used as a base for a quick weeknight curry.
