and cashew nuts till they are golden brown. Remove them into a bowl.

Step 3

In the same pan add 8 tbsp oil and add the sliced onions. Fry them till the onions are brown and
crisp. Make sure not to burn them. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Drain the fried onions onto a paper towel. Keep aside some of the fried onions for garnishing.

and all its juices into it and put the pan on medium high heat. Let it cook uncovered until the
gravy is dry and dense and the chicken is done. Keep stirring occasionally. This might take about
20-30 minutes. Remove from heat and keep aside.

Step 7

Meanwhile take half a cup of warm milk, and add a few strands of saffron. Let it soak for an hour.

Step 8

Wash and soak the rice in water for preferably half an hour. Later, drain the rice in a colander and
keep aside.

Step 9

Boil 8 cups of water, add cinnamon sticks, caraway seeds, bay leaves, green cardamom and salt.
Once the water is boiling, add the strained rice, give it a stir and let the rice soften up a bit.

Step 10

Once the rice is half done, strain the rice and discard the water. Discard the bay leaves and the
cinnamon stick.

Step 11

Arrange half the amount of rice as the bottom layer in a large dish. Next, add the chicken mixture
prepared earlier in a layer. Now add the remaining rice above the chicken layer, covering it
completely.

Step 12

Garnish with mint, coriander leaves, fried onions, slit green chillies, and fried nuts. Now pour
evenly the milk with saffron strands and two tablespoons of ghee over the layered and garnished
rice. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminium foil.

Step 13

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and put the dish in the oven for 10-12 minutes, till a nice
steam has formed inside the dish, and the rice has been done.

Step 14

Serve hot.
