We've been to many Indian restaurants who claim to serve cook dum biryani, but in fact what gets served up on the plate is simply stir fried rice or pilau rice. As you will see in this video an authentic Hydrabadi Layered Dum Biryani is a time consuming lengthy process requiring patience whilst using time honoured techniques and spices.

Dum cooking means sealing the pot whilst cooking, which seals in more of the flavour of the ingredients, (i.e. when you can smell any food cooking you're actually smelling the flavours escaping from the cooking pot).

A special thank you to Deepak bhai, Krish bhai, Executive Head Chef Suresh Baskar and Biryani Chef Dharma Teja and all of the restaurant team at Malgudi Indian Restaurant who welcomed us and graciously allowed us such a privileged glimpse into their kitchen to do the videoing.
