Coconut milk chicken biryani in cooker – <strong>COCONUT MILK CHICKEN BIRYANI IN COOKER</strong>

NOTES

  1. 1 cup rice – 2 cup water. Kaima rice absorbs more water . You can add upto 3 3/4 cup.
  2. Here I have used kaima rice /jeera samba rice from south. They are short grained rice.
  3. You can take a mixture of cocnut milk and water.
  4. While adding water use hot water , reduces cooking time
  5. You can boil the chicken first in less water and then add it.
  6. No need of marination as we r cooking it in the masalas.
  7. Biryani tastes better when old.
  8. Instead of masala pwdr ,you can use biryani masala pwdr.
  9. Same recipe for mutton ,but cook the mutton first .
  10. Chicken for biryani or any gravy tastes better with bones.
  11. For soft chicken ,use full thigh portion.
