Hello , everyone .
Welcome to home cooking with me , Raman .
My all time favorite meal is Biryani .
Now , I've had several varieties of biryani and I've made several biryani recipes .
Adding to that list is another special biryani .
This is Don Biryani .
Now , Don is actually it's like a bowl made with palm leaves .
And since this biryani is served in a , hence the name , now you can make this biryani either with chicken or mutton , but I personally love mutton .
I enjoy mutton Biryani .
So I am going to share this wonderful mutton Biryani recipe .
Now , I'll also give you a couple of tips on how to make it with chicken .
And uh this involves a lot of steps .
So make sure you follow all the steps perfectly to get it beautifully .
So why wait , let's get started and check out the recipe for this particular recipe .
I've taken 2 kg of mutton with bone .
So it's a nice fresh mutton .
So first we're gonna marinate the mutton .
So for this , I'm adding two teaspoons of salt , but one teaspoon turmeric powder .
So next , there are about four teaspoons of red chili powder , about one tablespoon of ginger garlic paste and about two tablespoons of fresh curd .
So just mix everything nicely .
So make sure you rub the pieces with the marinade .
So this is gonna give you a lot of flavor to the meat .
So you can follow all these steps while making the chicken biryani as well .
Now that I've marinated the mutton , I'm just gonna let this sit for about one knot .
Meanwhile , I'm just going to get all the other masala for the Biryani ready .
First , I'm gonna make the onion green chili masala paste for this to the pan .
Add two teaspoons of oil .
I'm using gingerly oil .
You can use any vegetable oil or sunflower oil for this first .
Add a few pieces of cinnamon , few cardamom , some clothes , one teaspoon , whole peppercorns .
So the cinnamon pieces are actually the thin cinnamon pieces .
So if you're using the thick variety , you can probably just use two pieces of cinnamon .
Next , I'm adding about five large onions that have been thinly sliced .
After sorting the onions for about two minutes , add 10 green chilies .
So I'm using about 10 large green chilies for this recipe .
Usually the Biryani is made a little more spicier .
So they add a lot more green chilies , but you can adjust the heat .
There is a quantity of green chilies depending on the quantity of rice and the meat that you're using .
I've sorted the onions till they're nice and transparent at this point .
Turn off the stove and cool the mixture .
So the ingredients for the masala has cooled on completely .
Next , I'm going to grind it to the mixer jar .
Add the salted onions and green chilies .
Add a little water and grind it to a nice fine paste .
Remove the masala from the jar and keep it aside the onion .
Green chili .
Masala smells amazing because of the spices .
And the masala itself is so aromatic .
Next for the green masala paste to the pan , add one teaspoon of gingerly oil to this .
Add one bowl of fresh mint leaves , one bowl of chopped coriander leaves and I'm adding a handful of Greek leaves .
So the re leaves is going to give you a nice flavor to the biryani .
So make sure you don't add too much of the fre leaves , just saute the leaves together for about 2 to 3 minutes till they're all wilted .
Remove from the pan and cool it completely .
So the ingredients for the masala has cooled on completely .
Next , I'm going to grind it to the mixer jar .
Add the sauted mint coriander and Greek leaves , add a little water and grind it to a nice fine paste .
Remove the green paste from the mixer jar and keep it aside .
So next , I'm going to cook the mutton pieces to the pressure cooker and two teaspoons of gingerly oil .
Next , add about three tablespoons of gee .
I usually use a lot of gee for my Biryani uh because it makes the biryani , uh very rich and flavorful .
If you don't want to use that much of gee , you can cut down the gee a little and add a little more oil to the pressure cooker .
Add one piece of cinnamon , add a few cloves , add a few carbon pots .
Next add star .
I'm adding three small pieces , bay leaf maize , about three pieces .
Next , add stone flour , one teaspoon Shahira , one teaspoon fennel that is soap , add the whole spices while keeping the flame on low .
You don't want to burn them .
Next , add one medium sized onion , thinly sliced sorter the onions till they're a nice golden brown color .
Once the onions have come to a nice golden brown color .
So I'm adding about one teaspoon of ginger paste .
So we're gonna add the ginger and garlic paste separately and three teaspoons of garlic paste .
So I'm using a lot more of the garlic paste for this biryani .
Next , add one medium size tomato chopped .
Now , the tomato is optional for this recipe .
While I was making this recipe at home , I added one tomato and the flavors were just amazing .
So I thought I should show you guys with the tomato .
So the flavor of the tomato , that little gis , it adds a lot of flavor to the biryani .
So I'm adding one medium sized tomato .
Now I'm going to add all the marinated mutton pieces .
If you're making chicken , you can make everything in the same pot .
So if you're making in the pressure cooker , you can cook the chicken in the same pot .
But the thing is the mutton takes a longer time to cook .
So I'm making it in two different pots .
First , I'm gonna fresh cook the mutton and then cook the rice along with this in a different pot .
So you can see the pieces are releasing a lot of juice .
Now add the onion paste .
So after you add the onion paste , mix it nicely along with the mutton pieces .
Next , add the green paste and mix the mutton pieces nicely .
Along with the paste .
The water quantity for this biryani is very , very important .
So for this recipe , I've taken 1 kg of rice .
So I've measured it and it's come to about four and 3/4 cup and the cup measurement is at 250 a milk cup .
So for this , I'm using 5.5 cups of water that is liquid .
You don't want to waste any of the masala from the mixer jars .
So you can add a little bit of water to the mixer jars and also add that water to the cooker .
So totally , I've added about 5.5 cups of water for 1 kg of rice at this point .
Check for seasoning .
I'm adding about two teaspoons of salt .
So you can adjust the salt according to your taste .
So now I'm going to pressure cook the mutton pieces for about 20 minutes on medium to locally .
So the specialty of this Biryani is in the rice .
It's made with this short grain rice , which is called the Z the samba rice or a , the rice .
So make sure when you're making this particular Biyani , you get this particular rice to make it .
So I've measured this 1 kg rice with the 2 50 m milk cup and I've got about four and 3/4 cup of rice .
I'm just gonna wash it a few times , pour enough water and soak it for about 20 minutes .
So you can see the color .
It's got this lovely rich dark green color .
The mutton has cooked beautifully .
So now I'm going to cook the rice along with the mutton gravy .
So I'm gonna make the biryani in this large pot because once we add the rice , it's gonna double in quantity .
So I'm gonna transfer the cooked mutton along with the curry .
That is the gravy into this large pot .
So now I'm going to add the soaked rice .
The rice has been soaking for about 20 minutes now .
So we're gonna cook this on a medium low flame to maintain the flame on a medium low throughout .
So gently mix the rice along with the mutton gravy .
So before I close the pot , I'm just going to check for seasoning .
So I'm going to just add a little bit of salt just to balance out all the flavors .
So I've checked now it's perfect .
Close the pot and cook for about 25 minutes on medium flame .
After 10 minutes open the pot and gently mix the rice along with the gravy .
This is to ensure that everything is mixed evenly and properly .
After 25 minutes , you can see the rice is cooked beautifully .
All the excess moisture is absorbed , close the pot and let it sit for about 10 minutes before you serve .
So here is this absolutely flavorful and fragrant Donna Biryani .
I'm serving this in a doughnut along with some nice chicken sal , some eggs and by the side , this is an absolutely delightful biryani .
