Instructions

Boil rice

1 Boil rice

Rinse the basmati rice. Add the rice, a pinch of salt and the measured water to a pot with a lid and bring to a boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-12 min or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked. Once cooked, remove the pot from the heat and keep covered until step 5.
Fry

2 Fry

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion. Split the cardamom pods open with the back of a knife. Heat a large non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with the ghee. Once hot, add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook for 5-6 min or until golden brown. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the bay leaves, cardamom pods and cumin seeds. Fry for 1 min further. Remove from the heat.
Tip! Browning the onions intensifies its natural sweet flavour.
Prep

3 Prep

Meanwhile, peel and chop the carrots into small cubes. Separate the cauliflower into florets and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Roughly chop the tomatoes. Finely chop the coriander leaves. Chop the paneer into bite-sized cubes.
Add vegetables

4 Add vegetables

Return the pan to a medium-high heat. Add the ginger garlic paste, paprika, chilli (spicy!), coriander powder, turmeric and garam masala. Fry for 1 min. Add the paneer, carrots, cauliflower, tomatoes, 0.5 vegetable stock cube, half of the yogurt (reserve the remaining half for serving) and the measured water to the pan. Cook, covered, for 10 min, stirring occasionally or until the tomatoes have softened.
Tip! Sensitive to spice? Go easy on the chilli powder.
Layer biryani

5 Layer biryani

Add the peas and tamarind paste and simmer, uncovered for 5 min further. Remove from the heat. Spread half of the rice over the bottom of a serving dish. Top with half of the paneer and vegetables, followed by half of the chopped coriander. Top with the remaining rice, paneer, vegetables and coriander.
Tip! Layering the biryani ensures an even mix of masalas. Strapped for time? Skip this step. Serve the plain rice and top with the paneer, sauce, coriander and crispy onions..
Serve

6 Serve

Gently mix the biryani until the rice is evenly coated. Divide among plates and serve with a dollop of the remaining yogurt and a sprinkling of crispy onions.
