Why mutton biryani calorie numbers differ
This mutton biryani is rice cooked with mutton, onion, tomato, ginger, garlic and cinnamon, with a little milk. The cut matters most, since fatty bone-in pieces add more than lean boneless pieces, and restaurant biryani often adds ghee and fried onion that this home recipe leaves out. Count the mutton pieces on your plate, because the meat-to-rice ratio shifts the total.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 11% of the calories in half a plate of mutton biryani.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 208 g per half plate. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
