A woman is cooking biryani. Biryani is an Indo-Aryan word derived from the Persian word 'Birian', which means ‘fried before cooking’ and 'Birinj', the Persian word for rice. The Biryani is one of the most popular and ordered dishes in India. It is made with Indian spices, rice, and meat (chicken, beef, goat, lamb, prawn, fish), and sometimes, in addition, eggs or vegetables such as potatoes in certain regional varieties. There are various theories related to the origin of this scrumptious dish. Many historians believe that biryani originated from Persia and was brought to India by the Mughals.

The modern biryani developed in the royal kitchens of the Mughal Empire (1526–1857) and is a mix of the native spicy rice dishes of India and the Persian pilaf. Tehatta, West Bengal; India.
