Chicken 65 is the classic Hyderabadi starter and the dish most of our guests order alongside biryani. Boneless chicken is marinated in red chilli, ginger-garlic and yogurt, fried until crisp, then tossed with curry leaves and green chilli for that unmistakable South Indian finish.
The marinade does the work here. Chicken thigh pieces rest in a chilli and yogurt mix so they stay juicy inside while the coating fries up light and crisp, rather than heavy and battered.
Finished in a hot pan with curry leaves, garlic and green chilli, our Chicken 65 is properly spicy and deeply aromatic – a favourite for game nights, student get-togethers and takeout orders across Shawnessy, Somerset and Bridlewood.
Served hot with onion and lemon. Ask for a milder version if you are ordering for children or spice-sensitive guests.
The classic combination is Chicken 65 to start and Chicken Dum Biryani to follow – or add it to any Hyderabadi platter.

"Ordered Chicken Dum Biryani and Mutton Biryani online. Both were flavorful and well cooked, with tender meat and aromatic rice. Definitely our go-to biryani place now."
