CHICKEN BREYANI/BIRYANI


CHICKEN BREYANI/BIRYANI
(can be substituted with lamb or vegetables)
1 kg chicken pieces (I prefer thighs with bone and skin still intact as it imparts flavour)
(To make this as a vegetarian dish, use vegetables of your choice, washed and cut up into chunks)
3 medium onions, chopped up and fried until golden brown (keep aside)
4 potatoes, peeled and cut into 2 cm cubes or baby potatoes halved (keep skins on them) fried in same pan as onions until starting to go light brown then remove and keep aside (they don’t have to be thoroughly cooked yet as they are going into oven)
Half a cup of ghee (clarified butter) or oil ( I just use butter)
2 cups basmati rice (cook as per instructions but shorten the time as it’s going into the oven, must not be soft or fluffy yet. Rinse and keep aside)
½ cup of brown lentils soaked in hot water for at least an hour then rinsed and cooked for 20 min, rinse and keep aside
