Richmond's Most-Ordered Biryani
Biryani isn't a curry with rice — it's a <strong>centuries-old layered rice dish</strong> from the Mughal kitchens of the Indian subcontinent. At <strong>Jaflong Tandoori</strong>, we make it the way it's meant to be made: <strong>aged basmati rice</strong> par-boiled with whole spices, layered over slow-marinated meat, sealed and finished using the <strong>dum technique</strong> so every grain absorbs the aroma.
Our <strong>Lamb Biryani (£14.95)</strong> is Richmond's most-ordered biryani for a reason — diced tender lamb shoulder marinated overnight in yogurt, garlic, ginger and our house spice blend, then layered with saffron-infused rice, fried onions, fresh mint and coriander. It arrives sealed; you open it at the table.
If you've only ever had biryani from a high-street takeaway, our version will surprise you. Every biryani is <strong>cooked to order — never pre-made</strong>, never microwaved. Chicken Biryani £12.95, King Prawn Biryani £15.95, Vegetable Biryani £10.95 (vegan). All <strong>halal-sourced</strong>, served with raita and a small vegetable curry.
Order biryani for <strong>delivery across TW9, TW10, TW1, TW11, SW13, SW14, KT1, KT2</strong> — or collect with <strong>10% off</strong>. For groups of 6+ we recommend pre-ordering: biryani for a crowd takes 45 minutes done properly, and we'd rather you wait than rush it.
In the kitchen
How our biryani is built
Basmati is cooked separately and layered with the meat or vegetables and saffron, then finished so the rice stays distinct rather than turning into a wet pilaf. Each biryani comes with a vegetable curry on the side, as it should.
Chicken, lamb, prawn and vegetable versions are all cooked to order, and Laila gluten-free basmati is available on request.
- Rice layered, not stirred through
- Served with a vegetable curry
- Chicken, lamb, prawn and vegan versions
- Halal-certified meat and poultry suppliers
Ordering it
The dish that travels best
Biryani holds its heat better than almost anything else on the menu, which makes it the right choice for the longer delivery runs out to Kingston, Teddington or Twickenham.
For groups, a couple of biryanis alongside two curries and breads feeds a table generously without anything going cold while people serve.
- Best-travelling dish on the menu
- Ideal for group and event orders
- £5 off delivery orders over £40
- Catering trays available from £18 per head
