Biryani is a well known South Asian food. However, it originated in Persia via Afghanistan to North India. Biryani is composed of rice and multiple different curries. There are different types of biryani such as: chicken biryani, mutton biryani, etc. The most famous biryani is chicken biryani as it is extremely delicious. I find myself along with others enjoying chicken biryani the most rather than the other types of biryani.
