Biryani Recipe

To start, you'll need some fragrant Basmati rice, tender pieces of marinated chicken, aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and cinnamon, and of course, a generous amount of saffron for that signature yellow hue.

First, soak the rice in water for at least 30 minutes to ensure it's perfectly fluffy when cooked. While the rice is soaking, marinate the chicken in yogurt and spices for a few hours to tenderize and infuse it with flavor.

Next, heat some ghee in a large pot and sauté onions, garlic, and ginger until fragrant. Add the marinated chicken and stir until it's browned and cooked through.

Now, layer the par-cooked rice on top of the chicken mixture and sprinkle it with saffron-infused water for that beautiful golden color. Cover the pot tightly and let the Biryani cook on low heat until the rice is fluffy and the flavors have melded together.

Serve the Biryani hot, garnished with fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lemon juice for that perfect balance of flavors. This recipe is a labor of love, just like the memories I have of my grandparents cooking it in the kitchen with so much passion and care. Happy cooking!.
