Balanced


Also, another 'critical' difference between the two is that in most pulaaos the meat is cooked in water with various whole spices like cardamom,cloves,cinnamon stick, pepper corns etc...and then the rice is cooked in that stock. (most of the times). But in biryani, one typically layers the meat and boiled rice alternately etc.

In pulao we normally use whole spices, while in biryani we use whole spices+ground spices and saffron etc.
