Handi Biryani Mauritius offers a different expression of biryani — inspired by North Indian culinary traditions and slow-finished under seal in individual clay handis.

Prepared fresh daily, our biryanis are defined by aromatic basmati rice, balanced spices and a distinctive flavour profile that is intentionally different from the cherished Mauritian style.

The Art of Dum Cooking

Our biryanis are carefully layered and sealed before being slow-finished under dum in traditional clay handis.

This final stage allows the aromas, spices and ingredients to gently infuse together, creating a distinctive balance of flavour, fragrance and texture. Long-grain basmati rice, aromatic spices and the dum process come together to produce a biryani that is rich, comforting and elegantly layered.

For the fullest experience, enjoy your handi hot, served directly from the clay pot.

Menu

Three distinct handis. One traditional dum process.

All handis are served with raita — a traditional yoghurt accompaniment that brings a cool, refreshing contrast to the aromatic spices.

Each handi is intended as an individual meal and is designed to satisfy one adult appetite.
