Chicken Biryani is by far the most popular Indian rice recipe around the globe.
Biryani and Pulao are the two types of Indian rice recipes that form an integral part of any formal or even
informal lunch or dinner. The main difference between the two is the cooking technique.

Biryani, is made from par boiled rice, which is then assembled with the other ingredients, sealed and put on
"dum" (put on a very low heat, so that all the flavors inside the pot amalgamate well) for at least 45 minutes.
Pulao on the other hand, is made by tempering the rice in desi ghee (clarified butter) and spices. Exactly
measured water is added to the rice. For 1 cup of rice 2 cups water is used. If using a pressure cooker, for
every 1 cup of rice 1 and 1/4 of water is sufficient.
Use only good quality basmati rice for the best flavor and appearance. The key to making a good
biryani lies in the way you par boil the rice. I cannot stress enough that never over cook the rice.
As far as the list of ingredients goes, please try to use all the ingredients. Each spice, contributes to the
overall flavor. Most of the spices will be easily available at any supermarket or definitely at an Indian store.
Please don't get intimidated by the long list, most of them are spices used in a small amount. The onions
have to be deep fried to a light brown color (this are called "barista"). Desi ghee (clarified butter) is also very
essential.
There are two ways of making a chicken biryani, one is called Pakki biryani, in which you cook the meat
separately and then layer it with the rice, seal and cook on a very low heat.
The other method is Kachi biryani, in which you marinate the meat, place it at the bottom of the pot and
cover it up with par boiled rice, seal and cook on a very low heat.
This recipe is the layered chicken biryani in which chicken is cooked separately.
Making a chicken biryani is a lengthy process BUT totally worth it. Plus you make biryani only occasionally
so do put your heart into making it and I promise it will turn out fabulous.
