Fatima Bi
Her Story
Fatima Bi's family has been cooking biryani for three generations in the Old City of Hyderabad. Her dum biryani still uses the same copper vessel her mother gave her as a wedding gift. The secret? She soaks the rice for exactly 45 minutes and layers the saffron milk herself. Her haleem on Fridays has a 3-day waiting list.

“The haleem had the perfect balance of tender meat, wheat and spice. Twelve guests, all strangers, all silent after the first bite. That's the highest compliment possible.”
