Chicken Biryani step by step

1. Warm milk with saffron and set aside. I prepare and chop the chicken potatoes onions. Grind all the spices and set aside..
2. Marinate the chicken with the yoghurt ginger garlic coriander mint fennel..
3. Heat ghee in pan and add remaining dry spices and bay leaves fry for a few seconds add onions and fry untill lightly golden. Add chicken and simmer for a few minutes untill chicken is cooked. Wash and cook rice on rice cooker when cooked add it to the pot of cooked chicken..
4. Traditionally my Mother would cover the biryani with her cooking lid and seal with dough. I use a tea towel or Persian pot cover for maximum seal of the pot. So reduce heat cover and seal pot and let slowly cooked flavours develope for at least 1 hour..
5. Serve with your favourite chutney..
