Ambur Biryani is a popular biryani recipe from the town of Ambur in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. It is known for its unique taste and the use of seeraga samba rice, a short-grain rice variety. The key ingredients in this biryani are seeraga samba rice, meat (such as chicken or mutton), and a blend of spices. The meat is marinated in yogurt and spices, then cooked with partially cooked rice in layers. The biryani is then garnished with fried onions, mint leaves, and a squeeze of lemon juice. The result is a biryani that is flavorful, aromatic, and has a distinct taste due to the use of seeraga samba rice.
