Biryani Masala

[katie]

Hi,

I made Chicken Biryani and Mutton Biryani a few times using the Bomabay Biryani Masala and Memoni Mutton Biryani Masala from Shan.

I want to try making my own masala. Can anybody give me some recipies of home made biryani Masala

I’m using the app on my phone, so idk how to link a thread .. so i’m just gonna quote the specifc post here. This recipe is AMAZING. Keep the aromatic spices the same.. change up the red mirch for ur level of spice. I haven’t used biryani masala in ages… always use this recipe.. so thanks a ton to Shab e hijr. Lol

I made biryani without the shan masala today.
it turned out finger licking good.. (according to my dad)

here’s step by step recipe for you all sweet girls.

Marinade chicken with…
half cup of yogurt
2tsp of red pepper
2tsp of dhania powder
2tsp of salt or to taste
1/4tsp of haldi
juice of half lemon
( since i was trying it first time i used only half chicken.)

soak one glass of rice and put it on side

for masala.

saute the onion when they start to turn brown .. add 2tbs of crushed garlic,ginger and tomatoes.
let it cook for 10 min in pressure cooker.

add chicken to the masala and bhoonify it.

since biryani is all about khushboo .. we need to add some to our biryani
so add the powder of these in the bhoonified chicken.

Also add green chilies.

boil the rice

layered the rice and chicken salan

cover and put it on dum for 20 min

Mix the biryani( plz don’t mix it right after breaking the dum let it rest for 10 to 20 min)

…and the end result.

Re: Biryani Masala

You can boil rice with black peppercorns, mint leaves, cumin seeds and long. Whole garam masala and aalu bukhara too can be added during bhoonifying the chicken.
