Chicken Biryani Recipe Karnataka Style - How To Make Chicken Dum Biryani - Chicken Recipes - Smita

Hi , this is Mitha Dave and welcome to get curried today .

I'm going to teach you a recipe that I learned when I was 17 years of age .

My mum had a party at home and I insisted on cooking something for her .

And it's that time that she taught me how to make the Katica style chicken biryani .

And it turned out fabulous .

And I thought I must share this recipe with you guys .

So let's make the Katica style chicken Biryani .

I've got a kilo of chicken , which I'm going to marinate it with a cup of yogurt , a teaspoon of turmeric and some salt .

And I'm going to make a green paste which we're going to use for the marination as well as the grain for that .

I'm going to take five spicy green chilies , a big cup of coriander , half a cup of mint leaves .

Huina , 15 cloves of garlic , two inches of ginger and one onion , large onion .

And I'm going to add very little water and make a fine paste out of this .

It's a nice smooth paste .

We'll add half of this to the chicken for marination to this .

I'm going to add a tablespoon of garam masala powder .

You can use any garam masala powder .

I'm going to mix this well and marinate it for an hour and while this is getting marinated , we'll make our gravy .

I'm going to heat a quarter cup of tea .

And once the game melts , I'm going to add five medium sized onions that I have sliced and I'm going to saute this till it becomes nice and golden .

Now , while this is turning golden , we'll make the rice for the rice .

I've taken three cups of basmati rice which I have soaked for 15 minutes in water .

I kept about 3 to 4 liters of water boiling here .

I'm going to add 2.5 tablespoons of salt to this .

And then I'm going to add the rice that I have soaked .

I'm gonna stir this gently and then I'm gonna cook it without a lid till each grain is nice and separate and almost done .

So let's see the onions .

Now , I want my onions to brown a little fast .

So I'm gonna add a little salt .

Keep an eye on the rice as well .

Keep the flame on a medium .

The onions have turned brown .

I'm going to add the remaining paste that we had made sausage this till the raw smell goes off .

Now to this , I'm going to add a tablespoon of chili powder , mix this well , and then I have finally chopped three tomatoes .

I'm gonna add these tomatoes and cook them till they're nice and soft .

Let's take a look at the rice since we have soaked the rice .

It will not take too long to cook within 10 to 15 minutes .

It should be almost done .

It's the correct consistency .

It's not cooked and it is still yet to be cooked , which we're gonna cook on a dump .

So let's switch off the flame and drain the water .

Now , let's remove it in a thal and cool it .

Now , till the rice cools down .

We'll finish off with our gravy .

Our tomatoes are almost nice and mushy .

I'm going to add the marinated chicken mix as well .

So I'm gonna add a cup of water to this and I'm going to cook it on a medium flame till the chicken is almost done .

We need to check for salt over here because we've already added salt in the marination and also when the onions were browning .

So just be careful , you can taste the gravy and then if you feel the salt is less , you can add it .

I'm gonna cover this and cook it til the chicken is done .

Let's check on the chicken .

This is done .

Now , I'm going to add a few boiled potatoes .

I have baby potatoes here .

I'm going to add 67 of them .

Mix them well , in the curry , cook it for another minute .

I'm going to put this gravy in another vessel because I'm going to layer it and then I'm going to cook it on a dumb to this .

I'm going to add the rice to this rice .

I'm going to add some saffron milk .

I have infused a few strands of saffron in warm milk .

Melted key .

This will just glaze the rice and make it look beautiful .

I'm going to add some finely chopped coriander and I have some fried onions which I'm going to garnish this biryani with .

I'm gonna simply cover this with the lid and I'm gonna cook it on a thumb on a very low flame for 10 to 15 minutes .

It's been 15 minutes .

We were cooking this Biryani on a dumb .

Now , let's plate this dish because it's ready to be served .

See how moist the biryani is .
