An authentic taste of India’s most famous rice dish
Umesh’s Hyderabadi chicken biryani is prepared the traditional way – a dish that takes time, patience, and true craft. The chicken is marinated overnight in yogurt and spices, then layered with half-cooked basmati rice, caramelised onions, saffron-infused milk, and fresh mint and coriander. The pot is sealed and slow-cooked dum-style, so the steam and aromatics infuse every grain of rice. The result? Fragrant, golden biryani where the chicken and rice become one deeply layered dish rather than sitting side by side.
This generous 1kg portion serves 2–3 people as a hearty main or 3–4 as part of a shared Indian spread. It’s mildly spiced, aromatic and complex without overwhelming heat, making it perfect for those who want true Hyderabadi flavour that’s accessible to all. Best served with cooling raita and tangy pickle, this biryani fills the kitchen with the unmistakeable aroma of saffron, spices, and herbs. It’s a dish that few have time to make from scratch, but one taste will show why it has been celebrated for centuries.
This is a 1kg serving - serves 3-4 as a side and 2-3 as a main.

This is such a big serve of biryani, we have it as a side and even eat this for breakfast with a fried egg. It makes a great lunch too with a handful of baby spinach and avocado!
Good sized biryani with heaps of good quality chicken packed with flavour, will definitely order again
We are so happy you loved this Shal!
We enjoyed This Biryani a lot as it's not something we would cook ourselves. It was the double size and although it didn't appear to be that large, there was a generous amount of chicken packed in.
This Biryani was really delicious and a very generous portion. What a treat to have a home cooked meal that we didn’t have to prepare ourselves! Will definitely order a meal from Umesh again.
Really enjoyed this Chicken Biryani, fantastic flavour and great spicy hit. Will definitely order again.
