👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Heat ghee or oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the whole spices and sauté until fragrant.
⏱️ 1 minute - 2
Add the sliced onions and fry until golden brown. Remove half the fried onions and set aside for garnish.
- 3
Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilies to the pot. Sauté for a minute until the raw smell disappears.
- 4
Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften.
- 5
Add the yogurt and all the ground spices. Mix well and cook for 5-7 minutes until the oil starts to separate from the masala.
- 6
Add salt, lemon juice, and about 1/2 cup of water. Cover and simmer on low heat for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is almost cooked through.
- 7
Meanwhile, cook the soaked basmati rice in plenty of salted boiling water until it is about 70% cooked. Drain the rice and set aside.
- 8
Layer the partially cooked rice over the chicken masala in the pot. Sprinkle the saffron milk and rose water evenly over the rice.
- 9
Cover the pot tightly with a lid (you can seal it with dough or foil to trap steam). Cook on very low heat for 20-25 minutes, allowing the rice to steam and cook completely, and the flavors to meld.

Gently fluff the biryani with a fork, mixing the rice layers with the chicken masala. Garnish with the reserved fried onions, chopped cilantro, and mint.
