Product Highlights
The MTR Biryani Masala is known for its authentic South Indian style, often leaning towards the aromatic and spicy profile found in Hyderabadi or Bangalore-style biryanis.
-
Key Ingredients: A blend of Cinnamon, Clove, Cardamom, Bay Leaf, Star Anise, and Black Pepper.
-
Convenience: The 15g pack is perfectly portioned for a small family meal, preventing the spices from losing their aroma in a half-opened larger packet.
-
Ready to Cook: It is pre-balanced; you generally do not need to add extra whole spices (khada masala) when using this mix.
-
Shelf Life: 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Quick Cooking Tip
To get the most out of this small sachet, mix the powder with 2 tablespoons of yogurt (curd) to form a paste before adding it to your sautéed vegetables or meat. This prevents the fine spices from burning and helps create a richer “masala” base for the rice.
