Recipe of the Day: Homemade prawn breyani [Video]

When you want to spoil your family, food is one of the best ways to do it. We might be eating in silence when it’s really good but sometimes you have a dish that needs discussion, even if it’s when you’re done. This aromatic homemade prawn breyani is going to get your family talking and easing with smiles on their faces.

The prawns are only a small piece of the breyani puzzle but everything is enhanced thanks to them. The lentils add more meaty texture along with the prawns which are fried and mixed with the fluffy basmati rice. It’s a recipe that does take a bit of effort to make authentically, but we promise that it’s all worth it as you home will smell incredible and your taste buds will sing with joy. The video below will show you exactly how and all you need to know is also in the description.
