Dindigul biryani has one rule: the protein must be tender enough to fall off the bone
Chettinad is Tamil Nadu's most complex cooking tradition
This paste is built on that marinade logic
Works just as well with paneer or soya for a veg version that still carries the same wedding-grade spice depth
Originally cooked in army mess kitchens in Shivajinagar
