Biryani Recipes
Biryani Recipes
Biryani Recipes is a guided recipe game rather than a restaurant one. There are no customers, no clock and no score: you pick a dish and the game walks you through making it.
Six South Asian dishes are offered at the start, chicken biryani among them, and the rest are regional variants of the same dish. Whichever you choose, the game shows the next step and waits for you to do it, using the tools and the ingredients it has laid out.
That makes it one of the slower games on the site and the one closest to an actual recipe. The spices are named and handled individually, and the stages follow the order a cook would use rather than an order invented for a game.
How to play Biryani Recipes
Pick a dish, follow the stages
- Choose one of the dishes on the opening screen.
- Take the tool or the ingredient the current step asks for.
- Drag it where it needs to go and let the step play out.
- Work through the preparation, the spicing and the cooking in the order given.
- Finish the dish and start another if you want a different variant.
Controls
Click or tap to pick up a tool or an ingredient, then drag it into place. It works on a phone as well as a computer.
Tips and strategy
Start with the chicken version, since it is the one the rest are variations on and the stages carry over. Let each step finish rather than clicking ahead, because the game holds position until the current one is done. Treat the spicing as the interesting part: it is where the variants differ from each other and where the game is actually teaching something.
