Ambur Biryani is a famous biryani variant from the town of Ambur in Tamil Nadu, India. It is known for its unique blend of spices and flavors. The key ingredients in this biryani are seeraga samba rice (a short-grain rice variety), meat (usually chicken or mutton), and a mix of spices like star anise, cinnamon, and cloves. The meat is marinated in a mixture of yogurt and spices, then cooked with partially cooked rice in layers. The biryani is then garnished with fried onions, mint leaves, and coriander leaves. Ambur Biryani is known for its aromatic taste and is often served with raita or brinjal curry.
