SAMAAN

01Marinate chicken in dahi, paste, spices, salt and half the onions for 1 hour.

02Boil rice until 70 percent cooked. Drain.

03Cook chicken in ghee in a heavy pot for 15 minutes.

04Layer rice, onions and herbs on top. Seal and cook on the lowest heat for 25 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Rest 10 minutes.

BUNTY KA TIP“Chief Mirchi Officer approved. Sunder daalo, swaad badhao.”Marinate longer if you have time. Overnight is even better.

Can I make it in a pressure cooker?

Yes, but a heavy pot gives better separated grains.
