Tender Coconut Calgary - Authentic Thalassery Biryani

Our Thalassery Biryani is crafted using the authentic dum cooking technique, where partially cooked rice and marinated meat are layered in a heavy-bottomed pot and slow-cooked over low heat. This method allows the flavors to meld perfectly while the rice absorbs all the aromatic essence from the spices and meat. The meat is marinated with yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and traditional Malabar spices for hours before cooking. Each serving is garnished with fried onions, fresh mint, and boiled eggs, creating a complete meal that showcases the rich culinary heritage of Kerala. Served with traditional raita and pickle, this biryani offers an authentic taste of South Indian royalty.
