chicken dum biryani

Chicken dum biryani recipe can be prepared in two ways, Kacha (kachi) Method and
Pakki Method. In the Kachi method of making biriyani, the raw ingredients are just
marinated and placed at the bottom of a utensil and layered with partially cooked
rice, saffron etc. Sealed & cooked on a slow dum process, trapping the steam inside
for even cooking.

Pakki is the other method where the meat and rice are cooked separately and then
the rice, saffron, etc are layered, sealed and cooked on a dum process for a shorter
time. In this post, I am sharing the second method of making i.e the pakki chicken
dum biryani recipe made in Hyderabadi style. This recipe yields very aromatic
biryani rice with delicious, soft tender & succulent chicken with bursting flavors.

Serving suggestion: Chicken biryani is served with raita and shorba. You can find

RECIPES HERE and shorva or BIRYANI GRAVY RECIPES HERE.

Cooking biriyani rice

water.

2. Bring 8 to 10 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Add bay leaf and shahi jeera.
You can also add cinnamon sticks, cardamoms, and cloves. You can also tie these
spices in a muslin cloth and add to the pot. It can be discarded later

3. When the water comes to a boil, add salt and drained rice.

4. Cook until it is done al dente. Rice should be firm, grainy and you must feel the
bite into the grain when you bite it. Drain it off to a colander.
Making chicken dum biryani gravy
While the rice cooks, Saute onions in hot oil to make fried onions. When they are
golden and evenly done, set aside 1/4 of them aside on a kitchen towel.

Lower the flame and saute bay leaf, star anise, shahi jeera, cloves, cardamom.
Add ginger-garlic paste and fry until the raw smell has gone completely.
Add chicken and fry on medium heat until it turns pale or white.

Sprinkle salt, biriyani masala, red chili powder, slit green chilies and turmeric. Mix
well and fry for 3 mins.

Cover and cook on a low to medium flame for 3 to 4 mins to let the moisture out
from the meat.
Pour yogurt and mix well. Cover and cook on medium heat until the meat is
completely cooked and the gravy thickens. At this stage, thick gravy is left for the
dum process. Taste and adjust salt as needed.

Lower the flame, sprinkle some mint and coriander leaves. Stir well.
Layer the rice evenly. Sprinkle fried onions, mint, coriander leaves, saffron soaked
milk, kewra water & ghee. You can also skip using saffron, ghee, and kewra water
but these give an authentic touch.

Cover the pot with a foil or a moist kitchen cloth. Place a tight lid to trap the steam or
dum. If the lid is not tight then you can place a heavy pot on top of the lid.

To make multilayer chicken dum biryani:

Use a small pot. Just before layering the rice, set aside half of the chicken curry.
Layer half the rice. Then layer the rest of the curry. Repeat layering rice then ghee,
kewra, mint coriander, and fried onions.

Dum process on the stovetop

Heat an old tawa or a pan, place this biryani pot and dum cook for 12 to 15 mins on
medium heat. If using an induction stovetop, you can directly place the pot at 3 No
for 15 to 20 mins.
For oven method

Grease an oven-safe bowl, Add the cooked chicken mixture, Layer the rice, sprinkle
mint, coriander, saffron milk and seal it with a foil, dum in the preheated oven at 180
c for 15 to 25 minutes.

Preparation to make chicken dum biryani recipe

1. Wash rice a few times till the water runs clear. Soak in an ample amount of water
for 30 mins. Drain and set aside.

2. Bring 2 to 2 ½ liters water to a boil in a pot or a cooker. Add bay leaf and shahi
jeera. You can also use cinnamon, cloves, and cardamoms. If you do not like to get
a bite of the spices in the rice, you can also tie these in a muslin cloth and add to the
pot.

3. Meanwhile, Heat 3 tbsp. oil in a biryani pot, handi or pan. Add sliced onions and
fry evenly until golden.

4. These onions lend a unique and authentic flavor, so do not skip these.
5. When they turn dark brown, set aside ¼ portion of these fried onions.

6. When the water comes to a boil, add salt and drained rice and cook until al dente
or 90 % done.

just for a min without burning.

8. Add 1 tbsp. ginger-garlic paste. (addition of ginger garlic for chicken biryani

10. Add chicken.

11. Saute for 2 to 3 mins until the chicken turns white in color. Sprinkle salt.

12. Add biryani masala, red chili powder, turmeric, and green chilies. I use this
HOMEMADE BIRYANI MASALA. Just a reminder about the rice, do check it.

13. Mix everything well and fry for 3 mins. After that cover and cook on a low flame
for 3 to 4 mins for the chicken to release the moisture.

14. Add 1 cup thick curd/yogurt.

15. Stir, cover and cook on a medium flame until chicken is soft and tender.

16. While the chicken cooks, check the rice. Drain off the rice to a colander when
cooked to al dente. The rice must be 90 % cooked meaning you must feel the bite
when you bite through a rice grain. Rice should be firm and grainy but not mushy.

17. When the chicken is cooked completely, thick gravy is left in the pot with oil
separated. Check the salt now and add more if needed. Stir well and sprinkle
chopped coriander and pudina leaves.

Layering chicken dum biryani

18. Layer the rice over the chicken gravy. Sprinkle fried onions, pudina, and
coriander leaves. You can also add the optional ingredients – pour the saffron
soaked milk, ghee, and kewra water evenly. For multilayer check the recipe card
below.
19. Cover the pot with a foil or a thick clean moist cloth.

20. Cover with an airtight lid to trap the steam or dum. If you do not have a tight lid
then you can place a heavy pot over the lid. You can mix 1 ½ cups atta with water
and make a dough. Stick the dough to the rim of the lid. Press it off on to the pot, for
an airtight seal. Place this pot on a hot Tawa and cook for about 12 to 15 mins on
medium heat. Once done switch off and allow to rest for at least 20 mins.

21. Aromatic Hyderabadi chicken dum biriyani is ready.

Serve hot or warm with raita and shorva.
