Introduction
This is a recipe that recreates the authentic way to make Biryani—a royal Indian dish and one of the world's three great rice dishes—at home. It features a wonderful contrast between the light, fluffy texture of basmati rice and the spicy chicken curry, served with a refreshing Raita (yogurt sauce).
Step 1
Place the basmati rice in a bowl and soak in plenty of water for about 20 minutes.
Step 2
Slice the onions, and mince the ginger and garlic. Wash the cilantro roots and cut into 2cm pieces.
Step 3
Remove excess fat from the chicken thighs and cut into small, bite-sized pieces.
Step 4
Put 2 tbsp of rice oil and the cumin seeds into a frying pan, and stir-fry over medium-high heat to release the aroma. Once aromatic, add the onions and sauté well until they are slightly browned and fragrant.
Step 5
Add the minced garlic and ginger, and continue to sauté as if slightly browning them.

Important Notes
Basmati rice does not need to be washed vigorously like Japanese rice; please handle it gently to avoid creating stickiness. ✨
By covering the frying pan securely with aluminum foil, you can trap the wonderful aroma of the spices and rice inside. 💡
Do not mix everything to a uniform color; keeping a mix of white rice and curry-colored rice allows you to enjoy a variety of flavors in every bite. 😋
