Biryani is probably one of the first dishes that comes to mind when you mention Indian cuisine. But did you know, there are over 70 different varieties of biryani. Here they make it in the dumb style. And that is dumb spelled D-U-M. This style originated from the Arabic Peninsula. And it's more similar to a plough than other classic biryani's. Instead of layering in the ingredients as usual, they mix everything together in a huge pot. Start by frying up red onions with ghee in a giant cauldron. Once they're golden, add ginger, garlic paste and diced tomatoes. For seasoning, add salt, turmeric powder and red chili powder. Now it's time for the protein. Here they like to wash the chicken thighs, season them with turmeric powder, then drop them in the main cauldron, followed by water and fresh coriander leaves. Finally add the par-cooked rice and let it boil for another 45 minutes to complete the dish. When the cooking is finally complete and the lid is removed, you'll be greeted by something glorious. Despite its colossal production, this biryani is on a whole different level. Every grain of rice is infused with those aromatic spices, making each bite an absolutely blissful experience. Now that we've gone through the most iconic dishes in Chennai, showing off the amazing variety South India has to offer, it's time for us to pick our favorite. Was it the crispy meduvada, the eggy mutton tie, the flavor packed mutton curry dosa, the legendary fish fry or the mouthwatering biryani? That did not look good to me. Today, the biryani stole the show from me, the mastery of crafting such deductible food on a grand scale and then serving thousands with affordable, high quality dishes. Well, that is just plain old worthy of my respect. So how about you? Which one of these Chennai classics would you try for yourself? Let me know downstairs in the comments below.
