Preparation Method for Fish Biryani Recipe

1. Rinse off your fish and get it dry. Slice it up into one-inch pieces. Add the chilis, ginger, and garlic into a blender and mash it up into a paste. Add salt, ajowan, and chili powder to the paste. Rub this paste all over the fish chunks. Put it to the side for the next two hours.

2. Now you are going to put oil into a frying pan, preferably a shallow one, and heat it up. Once heated put mustard seeds and cumin into the pan. You’ll know the oil is hot enough when the seeds sputter and pop immediately. At this point, introduce chopped onions. Stir often, until golden brown. Add in tomatoes and don’t let up on the stirring. This will take about ten minutes, as the tomato becomes pulpy. If you need to, you can add water so nothing sticks to the pan. When the oil starts to separate you are done.

3. Drop the fish pieces into the pan now, coating it with the tomato sauce. Turn down your flame; put a lid over the pan, making sure it is tight. Allow it to cook for fifteen minutes as the fish becomes tender. Add coriander that’s been finely chopped. Don’t let it cool.

4. Put rice to soak in water for thirty minutes. Take out another pan; boil the rice in it, adding two or three teaspoons of salt with lots of water. Drain the water when the rice is three-fourths of the way cooked.

5. Get out a bigger pan and layer the bottom two inches with rice. Put the fish and sauce as the next layer. Mix in dried plums here. Keep adding new layers until you have no more rice or fish to add. Mint leaves and more coriander top everything off. Add half a cup of water with cardamom to the rice. No stirring. Add in food coloring with a touch of water and put it over the rice.

6. Put a tight lid over this pan, cooking everything for twenty minutes.

7. When finished cooking, leave the lid on for a few minutes. Then remove and fluff up the rice.
