Beside the biryani, there was a bowl of creamy raita, a cooling side dish that pairs perfectly with the heat of the biryani. To add even more indulgence to the feast, Sonam’s spread featured a container of Hyderabadi-style chicken fry, which was seasoned with garlic, green chilies, and curry leaves. The chicken pieces looked golden, tender and oh-so-delicious! The feast didn’t stop there. The spread also included seekh kebabs, which were served with laccha pyaz (crispy onions), another classic addition to Hyderabadi dining. To complement these rich dishes, there were fresh slices of tomato, cucumber, and onion on the side. The actress took a moment to express her gratitude in the caption, saying, “Nothing like homemade biryani in Hyderabad. Thank you Pinky Reddy you are the best.”
