Biryani is one of the most complex dishes in South Asian cooking — layers of spiced meat or vegetables with fragrant rice, sealed and slow-cooked until the flavours meld together. Patak's Biryani Paste takes the hard work out of building that spice base: 27% ground spices including coriander, cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, and ginger, with fresh ginger and garlic purée already incorporated. The result is a medium-heat paste that's aromatic and warmly spiced rather than fiery, with the depth you'd expect from a proper biryani base.Use 3–4 tablespoons per portion: fry out in oil with onions until fragrant, add your marinated meat or vegetables, layer with parboiled rice, and finish in a sealed pot or oven. It also works well as a marinade for chicken or lamb before grilling, or stirred through rice dishes and karahi. The 300g jar gives you enough for multiple meals.
