I am back with a world class yummy Fish Biryani, this was on my to do list for a long time, final it was today.
Let's get back to our Recipe to yummy Fish Biryani.
Ingredients:
King fish (Surmai): 1 Kg
Rice: 1 KG (Soaked in water at least for 15 mins)( you can use basmati rice, but I prefer normal rice)
Ginger Garlic Paste: 150 gms + 50 gms (for marinate)
Onion: 250 gms (Thinly sliced)
Tomato: 500 gms (roughly chopped)
Mint Leaves: Half bunch
Coriander leaves: 1/4 bunch
Chillies: 10 Nos (Slit lengthwise)
Lemon Juice from 1 lemon+ 1 Tsps (for marinate)
Curd: 250 ML
Green cardamom: 6 Nos
Cinnamon sticks: 2 Nos
Cloves: 6 Nos
Chilli Powder: 1 Tsps + 1 Tsps (for marinate)
Dhaniya Powder: 1 Tsps
Oil: 250 ML
Salt: as per taste
Method:
First we need to marinate Fish with ginger garlic paste, chilli powder, lemon & salt for about an half an hour, heat a tawa & fry fish untill fish is slightly cooked, Note: to be cooked untill Fish holds the shape, untill 20-30% is done.
Heading towards biryani, Heat a heavy bottom vessel add oil, add whole garam masala (Cardamom, Cinnamon, Cloves) after a minute add onions, mint leaves & chillies, let onion turn slight golden (just more than pale pink), add ginger garlic paste, now add chopped tomato, chilli powder, coriander powder & lemon juice, this should cook for 5 mins now you can add semi fried fish & cook untill oil seperates. cover & cook till fish is 70% done, with this cook, oil should have come to surface on top, filter oil in a bowl.
In an another bowl (do this when you leave fish gravy for cooking) boil 2.5 ltrs of water add food orange colour & salt, when water is boiling hot, reduce the flame & add soaked rice, let this cook till 3/4th done, drain any excess water.
Now comes the climax,
you can take a seperate bowl & arrange fish masala (excluding Fish pieces) & rice layer wise & the top layer should be Fish pieces else add the Fish masala to cooked rice, mix well, in both the cases drop the filtered oil around the corners of biryani & in the centre, cover & cook for 5 mins on low flame.
Here completes your yummy biryani.
