Cooking Steps

Preparation

Step 1 : Marination:

Mix all ingredients (except 1/2 cup oil) well until it forms a paste. Add the chicken and mix again to coat the chicken evenly. Add 1/2 cup oil to thus mixture.

Step 2 :

Then let this marinate for at least 6 hours. It is best to leave it overnight in the fridge and cook biryani in the morning.

Step 3 : Final Preparation:

Take sufficient quantity of water in a large pot and add all spices mentioned under the rice section along with the oil. Bring it to boil and add the rice to it. Cook for around 3 minutes or until rice is 70% cooked.

Step 4 :

Alongside, take a large thick bottomed pot and put in 2 tablespoons clarified butter in it. Top it with the chicken that has been marinating.

Step 5 :

Spread chicken evenly. When done, quickly add half of the partially cooked rice.

Step 6 :

Sprinkle half of the chopped coriander and mint and fried onions from the final section. Then layer remaining rice. Top it off with the remaining coriander and mint and onions. Sprinkle the saffron infused milk on top.

Step 7 :

Sprinkle 1.5 tablespoons of clarified butter (ghee). Sprinkle a pinch of biryani masala over it. Then take a burning charcoal in a steel bowl (small) and add clarified butter to it so it lets out a smoke.

Step 8 :

Keep it on top of the rice. Immediately seal the vessel by keeping a lid and sealing it with dough on sides (so that no steam escapes). Keep some weight on the lid or it will be pushed off by the steam.

Step 9 :

Now cook this on high flame for 5 minutes and then low flame for 10 minutes. Take a cast iron pan, keep it on the stove and place a biryani pot on it. Let it cook on a slow flame for 40-45 minutes.

Step 10 :

Once done, let it rest for 15 minutes. Then pop the lid and mix the biryani well. Remember to remove the charcoal.

Step 11 :

Serve with a side of salad and garnish with fried onions.
