What is the difference between tehari and biryani?

Tehari cooks the meat and rice together from the start, so the flavour is even throughout and the dish is lighter. Biryani layers separately cooked rice and meat, which gives a richer plate. Tehari also uses mustard oil, which is the taste most people recognise immediately.

Is tehari beef or chicken?

Beef. Diced small so it cooks through with the rice.

Is it cheaper than biryani?

Yes — it is the lowest-priced full meal here, which is why it moves fastest at lunch.
