DescriptionTheories of Biryani's origins.svg
English: Biryani evidently has some connection with Persia, but commentators disagree on what that might be. Pilau is certainly a Persian dish; Birinj birian ("fried rice") is a Persian phrase describing a dish. The Mughals had biryani by the reign of Akbar.
