- Saffron soaked in warm milk- few strands

Preparation :
- Take 3/4 cup of warm milk & soak 1/2 tsp of saffron strands. Mix it with a spoon. This will be used while marinating chicken & at the time of layering.
- Soak 10 cashew nuts and 10 almonds in water for around 20 minutes. Grind it in a blender to a smooth paste.
Before marinating the chicken:-
- Clean & wash the chicken.
- Slice 5 medium onions & fry in oil till golden (birista). Remove & set aside a handful of it for use at the time of layering. For the balance, once cool, crush it lightly with your hands. Should be around 5 tbsp.
- Fine chop 1/2 cup coriander leaves & 1/2 cup mint leaves and slit the 2 green chillies.

- Boil 1.5 litres water in a pan on high flame.
- Add all the whole spices, 1.5 tbsp salt and ghee/ clarified butter.
- Stir it well to dissolve the salt completely . The water must be very salty.
- Once it comes to boil, add the soaked rice & keep on high heat, turning it gently a few times till the rice is 3/4th done. This should take 7-8 mins.
- Strain the water & keep the rice aside on a big plate.
FOR THE CHICKEN:
- Take a heavy bottom pan and grease the pan with 1 tsp oil.
- Now arrange the marinated chicken pieces evenly. Heat ghee in a tempering spoon or sauce pan and spread it over the marinated chicken. Mix it well.
- Switch on heat and keep on medium for 2 mins till it starts coming on a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and cover & cook for 5 mins till chicken leaves water.
- Remove the lid, give it a mix again and cover and cook on low heat for around 20 mins.
- You can stir it a few times if required.
- Open lid and check whether chicken is nearly done. In case there is too much gravy, dry it on high so that the gravy is thick. Switch off heat.
LAYERING THE RICE:
- Now layer the rice on top of the cooked chicken. Spread it evenly
- Now drizzle balance of the saffron & the birista/ fried onions
- Cover with a lid & cook on dum for 8 mins on low flame.
- Let it rest for 15 mins. Open lid and gently mix the rice and chicken.

I'm hooked to the channel for the presentation and the vast variety of dishes. Unlike other dishes these are properly proportioned too. Every time I try the dishes here, they come out amazing. This is my goto channel for mostly north indian dishes. I made this for my office colleagues (total attendance 8 people), I proportioned accordingly and everyone was mesmerized. You are amazing. Now, I'm doing this again tomorrow. Your brown onions video made me an expert lol. Amazing work chef.

Too yummy 😋 but tell me one thing, don’t we have to peel off the skins of almonds before making a paste ? Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.

[@citizenofnowhere7776]

The only thing the skin of alnobd is affect in the color of food. In this case, the color from the skin of almond would be drowned out anyway. So, why peel?

This was very very good. Mine was more Chicken and Rice than Biryani because i used boneless chicken and cooked the chicken the the rice together. I also used chicken broth. My american son and his american friends loved it. My rice was all yellow. It didn't have the nice yellow and white combination that yours had.

This dish looks yummy. However I dislike ghee. Can I substitute with olive/vegetable oil?

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Though ghee gives a great flavor to all biryanis but definitely you can replace it with vegetable oil. I frequently make biryanis at home so I use oil instead of ghee. I am sure Spice Eats will agree as well.
