Our Mutton Biryani stands as the crown jewel of Ninja Tiger's menu, celebrated as a hit with spicy food lovers for its bold flavors and complex aromatic profile. This signature dish represents the perfect marriage of tender, slow-cooked mutton and premium basmati rice, each grain infused with a carefully crafted blend of traditional Maharashtrian spices. The preparation begins with marinating fresh mutton pieces in yogurt and our special spice blend for hours, allowing the flavors to penetrate deep into the meat. The rice is par-cooked with whole spices including bay leaves, cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves, creating a foundation of aromatic excellence.
What sets our Mutton Biryani apart is the traditional dum cooking method - where marinated mutton and partially cooked rice are layered in a heavy-bottomed pot, garnished with caramelized onions, fresh mint, cilantro, and saffron-soaked milk, then sealed and slow-cooked to perfection. This ancient technique allows the flavors to meld beautifully while the steam creates incredibly tender mutton and perfectly cooked rice. Known for its bold flavors and satisfying heat, this biryani delivers layers of complexity in every bite - from the initial aromatic hit to the rich, spicy finish that keeps spicy food lovers coming back. Served with raita and shorba, it's a complete meal that showcases why biryani is considered the king of Indian rice dishes.
