As much as I enjoy eating it elsewhere, truth is, my wife cooks the best biriyani

In melted butter she's frying dried raisins, onions and cashew nuts

From Persia, the Middle East, to Asia, everyone cooks biriyani differently ...

Freshly chopped onions, cucumber, green chillies, ginger and yoghurt

Chutney made from ground coconut, green chillies and fresh mint leaves

Wine is not native to Asia and probably the best wine that goes well with spicy food such as this, is  Gewürztraminer (chilled well of course)
