Ingredients: * 500 grams onions, * 500 grams lean beef, * 1 tablespoon chopped garlic, * 1 tablespoon chopped ginger, * 125 ml vegetable oil, plus 2 tablespoons extra for cooking rice, * 1 teaspoon black cumin seeds, * 220 grams plain yoghurt, * 1 tablespoon salt, * 1 teaspoon garam masala, * 1 bay leaf, * 60 ml single cream, * 2 tablespoons chopped coriander. *For rice 315 grams long-grain basmati rice, * 1/2 teaspoon black cumin seeds, * 2 green cardamon pods, * 2 cloves, * 1 small piece stick cinnamon, broken up, * 1 teaspoon salt, * 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads in 2 tablespoons warm milk. Method: 1. Put the rice in a fine sieve and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. Put the rice and enough water to cover in a bowl and leave to soak for 30 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, slice 250 grams of the onions, put aside and finely chop the remainder. Cut the beef into large cubes. 3. Put the garlic and ginger in a mortar and use the pestle to pound together to form a smooth paste. Alternatively, use the side of a wide-bladed knife to pound together. 4. Heat 60 ml oil in a heavy-based saucepan or flameproof casserole over a medium heat and fry the sliced onions for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until dark brown and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the onions to kitchen paper. 5. In the same oil over a high heat, stir-fry the black cumin seeds, garlic and ginger paste and chopped onions until the onions are tender. 6. Add the beef and continue stir-frying until all the pieces look opaque and slightly fried. Cover the pan, lower the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. 7. Stir in 250 ml water, the yoghurt, salt, garam masala and bay leaf, then cover the pan again and bring to the boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 45 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed and the meat is tender. If all the liquid is absorbed before the meat is tender, stir in a little more water and continue simmering. If the meat is tender before all the liquid is absorbed, remove the meat pieces and cook the mixture, uncovered, over a high heat, stirring occasionally to evaporate excess water until a creamy consistency is obtained. Then return the meat in. 8. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream, crisp onions and chopped fresh coriander. Set aside. 9. Meanwhile, while the beef mixture is simmering, drain the rice. Heat the oil in another heavy-based pan or flameproof casserole over a high heat and add the cumin seeds, cardamon pods, cloves and cinnamon. 10. When the seeds splutter, add the drained rice, stirring to coat each grain in oil. Stir in 750 ml water and bring to the boil. Cover the pan, lower the heat and simmer for about 8 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed and grains are almost tender. 11. Meanwhile, soak the saffron threads in the warm milk. About 30 minutes before you want to serve, set the oven to 150 degrees centigrade. 12. Put half the beef mixture in the washed-out casserole or an ovenproof dish with a tight fitting lid. Top with half the rice, then layer with the remaining beef mixture and rice. Spoon the saffron and milk over the top. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.

Curd – 3 tsp
Rose essence – 1 tsp
Yellow color powder – A pinch
Onion(big) - 3 nos
Tomato - 3 nos
Green chillies - 2 - 3 nos
Oil for frying
For marinating:-
Chilly powder - ½ tsp
Coriander powder - 1½ tsp
Turmeric powder - A little
Black pepper - A little
Garlic-ginger paste - 1/2 tsp
Masala powder - A little for taste
(Cinnamon-Cardamom-Cloves powder)
Lemon juice - 5 - 6 drops
Preparation Method
1)Soak rice in water and keep for an hour. Drain water from rice and keep it aside.
2)Cut the chicken into big pieces(2 inches piece).
:- Chicken leg etc doesn’t need to be cut. Just make some slits on the piece, so that masala will go in.
3)Mix together all the ingredients for marinating the chicken.
4)Marinate the chicken with the above paste for approximately an hour.
5)Fry this in oil.
:- Don’t fry the chicken pieces for long time. Otherwise, it will become very dry and hard. The purpose of doing this is to make the pieces little stronger so that it will not be small, while making curry. Moreover, chicken will get some more cooking time while making curry for Biriyani.
6)Heat 2 - 3 tsp of ghee in a thick bottom vessel.
7)Add 3 - 4 pieces of cinnamon, cloves and cardamom and stir for a while.
8)Add the drained rice into it and fry for about 10 mins.
9)Add water.
:- For 1 cup of rice, add 1 3/4 cups of water.
10)Add little yellow color to it followed by salt.
11)Turn the flame to high and cover with a lid.
12)After a while, when water is not visible on top of the rice, open the lid and mix the rice since the rice at the bottom can get burnt.
13)After all the water has evaporated, don’t keep it on stove for a long time.
14)When the rice is cooked, switch off the stove and keep it closed for about 30 mins.
:- It is ok to switch off the stove even before the rice is completely cooked. Because it will get some cook time while baking.
15)Heat little oil or ghee or both together in a pan or a kadai.
16)Add ½ tsp of ginger-garlic paste and cut green chillies and saute` for sometime.
17)Add onions and saute` well.
18)When it is nicely done, add chilly powder, coriander powder, a little turmeric powder, a little black pepper, a little masala powder and salt and saute again.
19)Add curd and mix it well.
20)Add fried chicken pieces to it.
21)Cover and cook for 10 mins.
22)Add big pieces of tomatoes, cover and cook.
:- Stir in between. The gravy will become like a paste. It should not be dry or watery.
:- Check salt and add more, if needed.
23)Fry raisins, cashews, coriander and mint leaves etc in ghee and keep aside.
:-If you want to reduce amount of ghee used, don’t do this step. Instead, add cashews, raisins and leaves for baking as given in the next step, without frying in ghee.
24)For baking biriyani:-
a)For Oven Style:-
1)Take a big flat dish.
:- You can use Aluminium foil too instead of flat dish.
2)Coat it with ghee or butter.
3)Put the chicken with gravy as a layer followed by a layer of rice (use half portion of cooked rice).
4)Sprinkle 1 tsp of ghee on top of it.
5)Sprinkle rose essence.
:- Always take that in a small plate before sprinkling, otherwise pouring directly from the bottle can cause accidents.
6)Sprinkle the fried leaves and cover with another layer of the remaining rice.
7)Sprinkle the fried cashews and raisins on top of it and cover with aluminium foil.
8)Bake this in the oven at 375F for about 45 mins.
:- If you are making more quantity, you can put that in more dishes and bake in the oven at the same time.
b)If you don’t have Oven:-
1)Use a big wide vessel coated with ghee or butter to make biriyani.
2)Make layers as described in the above step.
3)Cover it with a lid and heat the filled vessel on a low flame for approx 20 - 25 mins.
:- Check the bottom of the vessel in between with a spoon or something to make sure it is not getting burnt. If it is getting burnt, reduce the heat.
25)For serving, take portions from the baked biriyani so that a serving plate will have both rice and chicken with masala.
:- Serve with lime pickle and raita.
:- Make raita with onions, tomato, green chillies(optional), curd and salt.
:- Use the same quantity of Mutton instead of chicken to make Mutton Biriyani with the same recipe.
