The Amazing Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani Review

In this blogpost we are going to review Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani from The Jewel of Nizam.

Review

It was the pleasure to have our dinner at Jewel of nizam, The famous Minar located at Golkonda Resort, Gandipet, Hyderabad. The first thing that caught my eye over the prospect we selected for the consuming of a meal was the subtle beauty and refinement which pervaded the restaurant. The ivory trimming and fixtures added a nice touch and along with the chandeliers; one was set for the most memorable meal.

There were thousands of dishes, but we tried their famous Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani

Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani was a very unique preparation and belongs to the Hyderabadi style of preparation. The dish was built up with basmati rice, which was aromatic, and the next layer of mutton is soft and tender as it is slow cooked. The spices of choice used to season the rice are cumin, coriander, and cardamom, which together create a distinct and irresistible fragrance.

The mutton that is served here is cooked to perfection, flavoured with lots of spices and served in a rich gravy which goes to show the prowess of the chefs at Jewel of Nizam. It is juicy and you can easily pull the meat with the bones as they soften when you take a bite. The gravy, containing such spices as ground cumin, coriander, and turmeric, adds to the taste profile of the biryani seamlessly.

To complement this dish, the Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani is then accompanied with raita, which is a yoghurt based preparation. The creamy raita does an excellent job of countering the spiciness of the biryani and it is almost like a palate cleanser that leaves one ready and willing for the next tasty morsel.

The time and effort that Jewel of Nizam has invested into making their restaurant as close to the original as possible is quite impressive. Hyderabadi Gosht Biryani is further evidence of the restaurant’s commitment to the introduction and continuation of the Hyderabad food culture. Every aspect of the preparation, from the on-point rice to the juicy mutton, is a fine example of how a flawless biryani should be made.
