Evolving mostly in the Muslim centres of India, the biryani has come a long way from entering India as a humble pulao to become a sophisticated, rich dish with hundreds of varieties spanning the length and breadth of the country. 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.
