And we taught you to count things which is the base for everything.

I'm pretty sure we conquered you and ever since then you've adopted our menu.

It's Arab food son.

Imho, the best thing arabs gave to human civilization is the shwarma, nothing beats it . (There is an arabic cuisine joint near where I work and I discovered it recently). But my friend who stayed in Saudi says this shwarma that we have here in India is shit, so I just cant imagine how amazing the authentic one would be.

Btw I always thought biryani had persian origins , I wonder what @Armstrong paaji has to say

read this .
its from the same article....

One of my enduring interests is in the origin of biryani. Nearly all the theories that have been offered to explain how biryani originated strike me as being bogus. One version is that the Mughals brought biryani to India which is completely untrue because the dish was known even before Babur got here. Another is that Timur (the Tamerlane of epic poetry) brought biryani with him when he came to plunder the sub-continent. This is nonsense.

If Timur did bring biryani, then he must have brought it from his homeland. But there is no record of biryani existing anywhere outside of India in that era. Pratibha offers no answers but agrees that biryani is an Indian invention, deriving from pulao which Muslim traders and invaders brought to our country. Her theory is that pulao is an army dish. When the soldiers set up a camp for the night, the cooks could not be expected to invent elaborate meals. So they preferred a one-pot dish where they cooked rice with whatever meat or fowl was available.

There is plenty of shawarma, try Syrian shawarma one day also.

Much of our food is a combo of rice and chicken, or rice and meat, or both with soup and vegetables. I can show a few plates if I could find some.

Biryani is cooked more often in my home as compared to Pulao and I do love it though we usually don't eat rice much.
