It’s said that the modern biryani developed in the royal kitchens of the Mughal Empire, during the rule of the Emperor Akbar. In Goa, traditional Hindu cuisine intermingled with Muslim Biryani recipes for hundreds of years to create this unique masala which can be called, with its own flavour and aroma, Goa’s own Biryani. This ancestral recipe comes from a Muslim family who trace their ancestry to Goa Velha (Old Goa) region where in the ancient times, Sultan Adil Shah had his capital.
