About Akni

Akni is a flavorful rice dish originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly linked to Indian and Pakistani culinary traditions. It is often compared to biryani but differs in preparation and complexity. Typically made with basmati rice, tender cuts of meat (like chicken, lamb, or beef), and a blend of aromatic spices such as turmeric, cumin, cardamom, and cinnamon, Akni offers a warm, fragrant experience. Vegetables like potatoes, peas, or carrots are commonly added, enhancing its nutritional content. Health-wise, Akni is rich in protein from the meat and provides energy through the carbohydrates in rice. The spices used in Akni can offer anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits. However, it can be high in saturated fats depending on the meat cut or cooking oil used, so moderation is key. For a more balanced dish, opt for lean meats and limit added fats.
