3) Bhatkali Biryani

4) Malabar Briyani



This biryani is famous in Kerala. It is cooked with a different variety of rice known as khyma rice. Cashew nuts and raisins are used generously in this dish. Unlike the other type of biryanis that is cooked with the meat itself, the khyma rice is cooked separately and then mixed with the gravy at the time of serving.
