Succulent biryani: perfect standalone or for a feast.
Ingredients:
  • 750g chicken thigh fillets, trimmed, cut into 3cm pieces
  • 175.00 gm Tikka Masala curry paste
  • 18.40 gm vegetable oil
  • 20.00 gm butter
  • 2 large brown onions, thinly sliced
  • 200.00 gm Basmati rice
  • 382.50 gm chicken style liquid stock
  • 250.00 ml thick Greek-style yoghurt
  • 82.50 ml mint leaves
  • 8 small pappadums, cooked, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a ceramic bowl, mix chicken with flavorful curry paste. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 3 hours, or ideally overnight for maximum taste infusion.
  • Preheat oven to 180°C. Heat oil and butter in a pan until sizzling, then caramelize onions for 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to a casserole dish and top with onions.
  • Put rice in a sieve and rinse under cold water until clear. Spread rice evenly over onions. Heat stock in a microwave-safe jug on HIGH for 2 minutes. Pour hot stock over rice using the back of a metal spoon. Cover with foil and a lid. Bake for 1 hour 45 minutes until rice is tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a bowl, combine yoghurt with finely chopped mint leaves. Serve biryani in bowls, and top with the minty yoghurt mixture and remaining mint leaves. Enjoy with pappadums.
