Shan Sindhi Biryani (Hot and Spicy Meat Pilaf)

Shan Sindhi Biryani Masala 60g – Authentic Hot & Spicy Meat Pilaf Spice Mix

Sindhi Biryani is not your average biryani. Born in the Sindh region of Pakistan, it is bolder, spicier, and more complex than most — layered with hot green chillies, sour dried plums (aloo bukhara), fragrant whole spices, and a deeply seasoned meat that carries every layer of the dish. It is the biryani that demands attention.

Shan Sindhi Biryani Masala brings that full, authentic flavour profile to your kitchen in a single, perfectly balanced spice blend. Shan Foods has been the trusted name in South Asian spice blends for decades — and this is one of their most celebrated mixes, beloved by home cooks across Pakistan, the UK, and the South Asian diaspora worldwide.

What Makes Sindhi Biryani Different?

Where Hyderabadi biryani is fragrant and aromatic, Sindhi biryani is hot, tangy, and unapologetically bold. The defining characteristics are the use of green chillies for sharp heat, dried plums for a distinctive sour note, and a rich, deeply spiced meat gravy that soaks into every grain of rice. If you’ve only ever made mild biryanis, this will be a revelation.

What You’ll Need

Alongside your Shan Sindhi Biryani Masala, you’ll want: bone-in lamb or chicken (for the richest flavour), basmati rice, whole spices (bay leaves, cardamom, cloves), fresh tomatoes, yoghurt, fried onions, green chillies, fresh coriander, fresh mint, and dried plums (aloo bukhara) for the authentic Sindhi touch. Full recipe on the pack.

How to Serve

Sindhi biryani is a complete meal in itself. Serve straight from the pot with a cooling raita (yoghurt with mint and cucumber) to balance the heat, a fresh kachumber salad, and sliced green chillies for those who want even more fire. It is the centrepiece dish at Pakistani gatherings for very good reason.
