Frequently Asked Questions

What cuts of beef work best for biryani? Beef chuck, short rib, or brisket work best for biryani as they become tender with slow cooking. Avoid lean cuts like sirloin which can dry out during the long cooking process.

How is beef biryani different from chicken or mutton biryani? Beef biryani requires longer marination and cooking times, and the Shan Beef Biryani Masala is calibrated with deeper spice to match beef’s robust flavor — the result is a more intensely flavored, hearty biryani compared to lighter chicken preparations.

Can I use this masala for jackfruit biryani? Yes — raw jackfruit (kathal) has a meaty texture that pairs beautifully with this bold masala for a vegetarian biryani that captures the spirit of beef biryani without meat.
