Biryani is a celebration of history, culture, and artistry. This sumptuous rice-based dish, made by layering curried meat or vegetables with fragrant rice, draws its roots from Persian cuisine. Its name, derived from the Persian word Birian, meaning “fried before cooking,” hints at the careful technique and thought behind each dish. Legend tells us that Biryani was created in the 1600s by the Queen of the Mughal Empire to nourish soldiers with a balanced mix of carbohydrates, protein, and immune-boosting spices—all in one elegant, portable dish. Over centuries, it became a symbol of hospitality, celebration, and culinary mastery, evolving across India with regional variations yet always maintaining its signature harmony of flavors.
Our Biryani Spice Mix captures this legacy in a simple, effortless form. For Australian families, it’s the perfect way to create a quick, home-cooked meal bursting with flavor. Simply toss your choice of protein—chicken, lamb, beef, or vegetables—with rice, a drizzle of olive oil, and a generous sprinkle of the spice blend. For a modern twist, layer everything together in a tray bake and roast in the oven: the rice absorbs the aromatic spices while the protein cooks to tender perfection, giving you a one-pan, fragrant, and colorful meal with minimal effort. Sprinkle with toasted nuts, fresh herbs, or a squeeze of lemon to finish, and you’ve recreated this historic, mouth-watering dish in a way that fits perfectly into everyday family life.

Beautifully packaged and delivered quickly . Excellent service
Not just the cummin I have been using you guys for a couple of years always great spices, I don’t normally to reviews for any companies. But in a time where things are expensive and companies are profiting as much as they can, you shocked me as when I got my delivery there was a reusable shopping bag, a box of papadums and all the spices where in special cotton bags.
I know this is marketing stuff but this costs your company money and I just want to say keep up the good work and a huge thank you it’s the little things that can help and make a difference. I will use the shopping bag and the papadums thank you 🙏🏼
I can highly recommend this product fromThe Spice People. It is pure, densely flavoured and slightly sweet. I am more than satisfied by all of the herbs and spices I purchase from The Spice People. I especially love the convenient, attractive packaging that keeps the contents fresh and potent.
