HOW TO COOK

wash and marinate chicken with half turmeric,salt,1 tsp GGP..Over night marination is good for best recipe or at least keep this aside for 1 hour......*I went with over marination step..

chop 1 onion into pieces and other two chop into thin long slices and chop tomatoes too.......Wash and soak rice for 30 minutes..

Heat a pan with 1/4 cup of oil and fry sliced onions finely..remove from oil and place them on 

heat a pressure cooker with oil and add in back cumin and saute..Then add chopped onions and fry well. add tomatoes and mix it..

Mean while heat a big vessel with enough water and add in whole spices which mentioned under "TO COOK RICE YOU NEED"..When water starts boiling add in rice and cook til 60%. rice should be half cooked at least but not completely..

Then drain rice into colander and keep aside.Boil water, add color and mix.keep aside.

Now in cooker,add in marinated chicken and mix it once..To this add all spice powders as per your taste.(i.e., chili powder,salt,turmeric,cumin,coriander,biryani masala powders,GGP) add mint+coriander leaves and mix..

Then spread rice on top.Also spread half of the fried onions and mint+coriander leaves.Sprinkle some water which is mixed with color.Again place some rice and layer ti well.

Finally mint+cilantro leaves,remained fried onions,color mixed water..

By this time,you must complete all the ingredients which you took for biryani making.means empty bowsl.:)

Now heat a big broad pan and turn on heat.When it`s hot place biryani cooker on top of it and close it with lid or plate.On top of it put a big weight.

Put flame in low(I kept on big gas burnor-not small) let it cook fro 20 minutes without disturbing..20 minutes is perfect timing for boneless medium size chicken pieces. if the pieces are big in size then you may need 5 more minutes..

Then turn off and after 15 minutes remove lid.Mix carefully and serve with cucumber pepper raita and any gravy..
