Cookd masalas for chicken
Method
Wash and soak 500g of basmati biryani rice for 20 mins. Strain and set aside for 5 mins
In a pot, add ghee, and fry the rice for 2 minutes. Add water and bring it to a boil. Add the salt, turmeric powder, and saffron. Don’t mix too much. Once the water and rice and in the same level, close and keep on dum for 15 mins on a low flame. Keep a tava under the vessel to prevent it from burning. Allow it to rest for 15 mins.
Heat 2 packets of curry paste in a kadhai and add 1 kg of chicken biryani cut. Do not add any extra water, cook for 18-20 mins until the chicken is done. Cook on a medium flame, stirring occasionally.
Open the dum and top with the seasoning oil from the Cookd wedding bhai biryani paste. Mix gently.
In a large platter, add a layer of rice and top it with the meat masala in the center. Garnish it generously with the fried cashew nuts, raisins, pomegranate, mint leaves, coriander leaves, and some dried rose petal
