The fragrant whispers of the dum Biryani, the teasing flavours of the meat infused rice and the ambience of bonhomie. That is what Eid has always meant for me. And I am sure it has been the same for a lot of us. So it became a little bit of a challenge for me to come up with this list of 11 delicious delicacies for Eid that did not include a biryani!
Mutton Keema Samosa
Nothing is as satisfying as biting into a cripsy samosa filled with juicy spiced minced meat. Don’t you agree?
Semiya Payasam
The ultimate Eid dessert is usually the seviyyan, thin vermicelli roasted in ghee and cooked in sugary milk. This is slightly more milky twist, but equally delish!

Yummy succulent mutton meatballs in a spicy curry! Sigh, what better way to break that fast, eh?
