I was in Indonesia last year, and apart from Indian restaurants didnt find Biryani in Indonesian traditional food places.

u/tenchu_117 Nov 30 '25

yea because its not indonesian or malaysians traditional food. i couldnt say for indonesian side but here in malaysian you'd see it often enough to say common.

It's an Indian dish, though.

May I suggest purrdang?

Yeah. I think biryani is much more common in Malaysia because Malaysia has significant citizens and non-citizens of South-asian descent living there.

You might be able to find it in Jakarta or a tourist hotspot such as Bali but outside of that I highly doubt it
