Kaju Biryani

Kaju Biryani is a rich and indulgent dish made with basmati rice, roasted cashew nuts (kaju), and a blend of aromatic spices. Unlike traditional biryanis with meat or vegetables, this version highlights the nutty flavor and crunchy texture of cashews. The dish is prepared by layering cooked basmati rice with sautéed onions, tomatoes, and spices like cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves. The roasted cashews are added to the layers, along with saffron-infused milk, to give the biryani a luxurious taste. Fresh herbs like mint and cilantro add a burst of freshness. Kaju Biryani is often served with raita, papad, or a light curry, offering a delightful combination of flavors and textures in each bite.
