Kerala Biryani, also known as Malabar Biryani, is a flavorful rice dish from the state of Kerala, India. It is made by cooking marinated meat (usually chicken or mutton) with spices, coconut milk, and partially cooked basmati rice. The layers are then sealed with dough and cooked on low heat, allowing the flavors to meld together. Kerala Biryani is known for its rich and aromatic flavors, thanks to the use of coconut milk and a unique blend of spices like fennel seeds, star anise, and black cardamom.
