No you dont have to cook it that long. I think you can make it about an hour. The tastes still develops

That's so sad.
Re: pulao
I usually cook my chicken yakhni for 30-45 mins and its good enough. WHen making yakhni, i add a piece of ginger, one cut up onion, a few garlic cloves, sabut garam masala, saunf, sabut dhanya etc.
To make the pulao, i heat the oil and sautee sliced onions until truly brown (the more brown they are, the better the pulao color). Then i also add sabut garam masala, zeera etc and add chicken and fry for a bit. Add the yakhni, salt, lal mirch etc to taste. When yakhni is boiling add presoaked rice and cook on medium heat until most of the water has evaporated. Then i do the dam by putting a wet napkin on top of the rice and cover with the lid and keep on the lowest setting possible for about 30 mins or so. Check to make sure the rice is done.
Re: pulao
Ok here is how I make Pulao...
In a spacious pot heat some oil, add ginger garlic paste to it and let it cook for few minutes. Then add brown onion, salt, few cloves, cinnamon stick(s), coriander powder, big fat black ilaichi (I think that is what they call it.) Note: If you don't like using brown onions from store then first golden brown the onions in the oil, then add ginger garlic paste and cook it for a min or two and then add the spices. After adding all your spices, add your meat. let it kind of change color. Stir it few times. Cook the meat like this for like 5 minutes or so and then add water. Add the amount of water needed for the rice. So if you have 1 cup rice, add 2 + 1/4 (almost 1/4 but not more then it) cups of water. On medium heat let it cook. When the meat is tender, reduce the heat to medium low and let it simmer for about 15-20 mins. Then add your soaked rice and let them cook in the yakni in mediumish heat. When they have almost absorbed all the yakhni, reduce the heat to low and leave them on dum for almost 10 mins or so. Use a paper towel for dum as it helps absorb extra moisture. If you have black zeera, then sprinkle it before leaving it on dum.
Enjoy your pulao with Raita. :D
Re: pulao
** saunf, sabut dhanya etc.**
This gives your yakhani the real taste of pulao. Mostly pulao of beef and mutton is good when yakhani is boiled up to 3 hours. For chicken, it is better to boil the stuff without checken for an hour on low heat and then add chicken later on so that it remians intact when finally cooked. A whole garlic in the yakhani also gives a good taste (squeeze it after boiling).
