How steam, layers and patience turn rice and meat into something more.
Read the story ›Amina's Biriyani is a family kitchen in Chullickal, Kochi. We write these stories because the dish we cook belongs to a place, and the place deserves to be understood. Where we describe history, we check it against public sources and list them at the end of the article. Where we describe our own kitchen, we write from experience.
New stories are added from time to time. If there is a Kochi biriyani memory you would like us to tell, write to us at orders@aminasbiriyani.com.
