About Beef Biryani

Beef or mutton biryani is heavier than the chicken version because red meat carries more fat and the meat is usually cooked in extra oil before layering. A full plate sits around 520–550 kcal at home and comfortably over 700 kcal from a restaurant degh.

Tip: Trim visible fat from the meat before cooking, or at the table, and you can save 60–100 kcal per plate without touching the taste.
