I am cooking biriani for a party and one of the guest is dairy-intolerant. In biriani, marinading the meat with yogurt+spices is an essential step, and I dont have experience with non-dairy yogurt.
What non-dairy yogurt will be best for this purpose?

  • Dairy-free yogurt is an oxymoron. At least to this American, there is no such thing. However, a huge percentage of the biryani-eating population is, to some degree, lactose intolerant. Can you ask the guest?

  • For curries, I'll use coconut cream or coconut milk to get the thick, creamy texture ... but as it's not acidic, I don't think it'd have quite the same effect that you'd get from a marinade (to tenderize the meat).

In a marinade it is the enzymes and acids in yoghurt which are the important factor so a non-dairy substitute may not work well.



Probably the best approach would be to use an oil and spice marinade. As biryani is a fairly dry dish the yogurt is probably less essential in contributing to a thick sauce as it might be in other recipes.



Much will also depend on the cut of meat that you are using, yoghurt is especially good at tenderising cuts which can be tough or dry so you might consider using a more tender or fatty cut that usual, for example use chicken thigh instead of breast for moisture and adjust the marinate to suit eg add an acid (lemon juice, vinegar or tomato paste) for tougher cuts and a fat or oil for dryer ones.

    A bit late but would semi-sweet wine perhaps work well to simmer to dryness before adding coconut milk? Wine has the flavour and acidity needed to tenderise the meats.
    I am trying that right now.
