And the Winner Is


Last month a challenge was put out in the office as to who can cook the best Biryani. Taleesha who is of Indian descent and Graham a fairly good amateur cook, took up the gourmet challenge with gusto. And today with 4 judges including me, yum yum, did the taste test.


I am not sure how the others judged but here is my score sheet.
  • Presentation: Went to Taleesha as hers was a more traditional looking Biryani of Durban and Southern Indian whereas Graham's looked Northern India with its layers although it looked a little on the bulimic side.
  • Aroma: Hands down to Graham
  • Texture: To Graham again as he use yogurt and it was nice and moist compared to Taleesha's
  • Taste: It was close with Taleesha being more authentic and Graham's leaning more to a Thai taste.
With the other judges scores in, the winner went to ...

Graham. Well done.
