For a richer flavor, use ghee instead of butter. Feel free to customize this dish with your favorite biryani additions, such as diced red onion, peas, carrots, or toasted nuts. A squeeze of fresh lime juice just before serving enhances the flavors. If you don't have fresh ginger, use 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger. To add protein, consider topping with grilled chicken, shrimp, or chickpeas.
