Ingredients, preparation and texture

Biryani belongs to a transregional spiced-rice tradition, with varied Iraqi combinations. Rice, meat, vegetables and garnishes may be combined, and spices and fat shape flavour. Not every meat-and-rice dish is biryani, and shared names do not mean identical national recipes.
