Equipment

  • Deep
  • Deep saucepan
  • Tablespoon
  • Plate

Ingredients
  

  • 500 gm cauliflower rice finely shredded cauliflower
  • 100 gm grams hung full-fat yogurt
  • 20 gm 2 butter pieces (melted)
  • 2 tbsp ghee
  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander and mint paste
  • 1 kg 1 chicken (marinated and cut into small pieces)
  • 30 gm 1 onion (shredded or in paste form and fried)
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  • ½ tbsp coriander powder
  • ½ tbsp cumin powder
  • ½ tbsp garam masala
  • ½ tbsp red chili powder
  • ½ tbsp turmeric
  • ½ tsp lime juice
  • A few drops of kewra optional
  • A few drops of shahi biryani essence optional
  • A pinch of saffron (soaked in warm water)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut the marinated chicken into smaller pieces.
  • Take a deep skillet – or saucepan – and place over a low heat setting. Pour 1 tablespoon ghee in it and let it melt.
  • Add the chicken to the saucepan and then pour over the cauliflower rice.
  • Top the chicken-cauliflower-rice mixture with coriander, kewra, mint leaves, onions, saffron, and shahi biryani essence.
  • Cook the non-veg biryani until the chicken pieces are cooked through. This should take about 15 to 20 minutes, on medium heat. Try cooking without a lid, or the rice will become very soggy.
  • Serve with butter and ghee.

Notes

The recipe requires marinated chicken. That’s why you need to marinate the chicken overnight. Do so with 1 tablespoon ghee, coriander paste, a few fresh mint leaves, ginger-garlic paste, salt, yogurt, and all the spices.
