Prawn Biryani
Prawn Biryani is a delicious and flavorful dish that combines fragrant basmati rice with succulent prawns cooked in a blend of aromatic spices, herbs, and seasonings. It is a popular Indian dish that brings together the richness of seafood with the complexity of biryani spices.
Ingredients
Method
- Wash the basmati rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for 30 minutes, then drain and set aside.
- In a large pot, heat ghee or oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and sauté until fragrant.
- Add the sliced onions and cook until golden brown. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chilies. Stir well.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften. Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook for a few minutes.
- Add the prawns to the pot and cook until they turn pink and opaque.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth. Add the yogurt to the pot and mix well with the prawn mixture.
- Add the soaked and drained rice to the pot. Pour enough water to cover the rice by about an inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
- Once the rice is cooked, sprinkle garam masala, chopped coriander leaves, and mint leaves over the top.
- Fluff the rice gently with a fork to mix in the spices. Serve hot with raita or your favorite side dish.
- Enjoy!
