Before Biryani the rice and meat dish as Pilaf come to India way back in 700 AD through Muslim conquest. To cater to the noble palates, the local Avadhi chefs more adept in use of spices innovated the process of cooking meat and rice separately with distinct spices for both, then slow-cooking them together. Culinary historians note this "dum pukht" technique as a key development for birth of BIRYANI.
