🌶️ Karachi Deghi Chicken Biryani🍗🥘

Ingredients

For Chicken & Masala
• Chicken – 1.5 kg
• Yogurt – 1 cup
• Ginger Garlic Paste – 3 tbsp
• Tomatoes – 3 large / 4 medium (chopped)
• Potatoes – 3 medium / 2 large
• Onions – 3 medium (thinly sliced)
• Fresh Coriander – handful
• Fresh Mint – handful
• Dark Orange Food Colour – as needed

Powdered Spices
• Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder
• Turmeric (Haldi)
• Cumin (Zeera)
• Coriander Powder (Dhania)
• Garam Masala Powder
• Biryani Masala

Whole Spices (for rice)
• Bay Leaves
• Green Cardamom
• Black Cardamom
• Cloves
• Black Pepper
• Star Anise

Rice
• Best Quality Sela Rice – 1 kg

For Dum
• Fried Onions
• Kewra Water
• Jaifal & Jawitri Powder

⸻

Method
1. Fry the Onions
Heat oil in a heavy pot and fry sliced onions until medium to dark brown. This step takes time but gives the biryani its rich colour. Remove onions and set aside.
2. Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, mix chicken with ginger garlic paste and food colour.
In another bowl, mix yogurt with all powdered spices (except whole spices).
3. Cook the Masala
In the same oil used for onions, add chicken and spiced yogurt.
Bhoon for 1–2 minutes, then add tomatoes.
No water needed as chicken, yogurt, and tomatoes release enough moisture.
4. Add Potatoes
Add potatoes and cook until chicken and potatoes are tender.
Finish with fresh coriander.
5. Cook the Rice
In a separate pot, boil water with whole spices, salt, and fresh mint.
Add soaked rice and cook until 80% done. Drain.
6. Layering & Dum
Layer rice over the chicken gravy.
Top with fried onions, kewra water, and a pinch of jaifal & jawitri.
Cover tightly and give dum on low heat.
7. Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot with raita and fresh salad 🌿✨
