Instructions
- Marinate the Lamb:
- In a large bowl, mix yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric, chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala, lemon juice, and salt.
- Add the lamb pieces, coat well, and let them marinate for at least 1-2 hours or overnight for deeper flavor.
- Cook the Rice:
- Wash and soak basmati rice for 30 minutes.
- Boil water with bay leaves, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- Cook the rice until 70% done. Drain and set aside.
- Cook the Lamb:
- Heat ghee or oil in a deep pan. Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown.
- Add ginger-garlic paste, green chilies, and tomatoes. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and the oil separates.
- Add the marinated lamb and cook on medium heat until the meat is tender and well-cooked. You may add water if needed to prevent sticking.
- Layer the Biryani:
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, spread a layer of rice at the bottom.
- Add the lamb mixture as the second layer.
- Add another layer of rice on top.
- Drizzle saffron milk and garnish with chopped coriander, mint, and fried onions.
- Dum Cooking:
- Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid or seal with dough to trap the steam.
- Cook on low heat for 20-25 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve:
