Yapılışı

1. Wash the basmati rice and soak it in water for 30 minutes.
2. Marinate the chicken with yogurt, ginger‑garlic paste, green chilies, mint, coriander, lemon juice, and salt; let it rest for at least 1 hour.
3. Fry thinly sliced onions until deep golden brown; set aside for layering.
4. Cook the marinated chicken in a little oil until it is half done and the spices are fragrant.
5. Boil the soaked rice with the whole spices until it is about 70% cooked, then drain.
6. In a heavy‑bottomed pot, layer the chicken at the bottom, then spread the partially cooked rice over it; sprinkle fried onions, mint, coriander, saffron milk, and dollops of ghee on top.
7. Seal the pot tightly (using dough or a heavy lid) and cook on low heat (dum) for 45 minutes.
8. Turn off the heat, let the biryani rest for 10 minutes before gently fluffing and serving.
