Jackfruit Biryani - Kathal Biryani

By now you all know that biryani is my favorite food , I prefer biryani over roti subji and believe me its not that hard to make it , I have made quite a bit of all different kind of biryani but this one was left out, so made it. I got frozen Jackfruit from Indian grocery store and defrost it and put it in spices and made biryani, it was perfectly spiced and moist. 


Ingredients:

2 cup basmati rice - soaked
2 cups frozen jackfruit pieces
2 tbsp. ghee
1 onion thinly sliced
1 tbsp. ginger garlic paste
2-3 green chilies slit
1 bay leaves
2 tbsp. sindhi biryani masala
2 pods of Cardamom 
few cloves, black peppercorns, cinnamon stick, star anise, badi eaichi (all the whole spices)
2 tbsp. Kashmiri red chili powder
1 tbsp. red chili powder
1/2 tbsp. Turmeric powder
1 tbsp. cumin coriander powder
1 cup yogurt
salt as per taste
1.4 cup fresh mint and coriander leaves


Method :

First defrost jackfruit pieces so it can absorb the flavors of the marinade.

In a big bowl, add yogurt, biryani masala and mix it. Add jackfruit pieces in it and mix it nicely.

Keep it in this marinade for at least half an hour. 

In that time, heat the heavy bottom pan and add water , twice the quantity of the rice, 1 tbp, ghee , salt , star anise in it. 

Once water boils, add rice and cook till its 70% done.

Take the rice out and discard star anise from it.

Now in the same pan, add ghee, then add all the whole spices and cook it for few seconds. 

Then add onions and cook it , till its pink in color.

Add ginger , garlic paste, green chili and cook for 1 more minute. 

Add Jackfruit pieces with the marinade and mix it. Add all the powder masala and salt for the masala, remember we have salt in rice.

Now cook the jackfruit till its cooked 70% , take one bowlful of masala out.

Now Layered masala, rice, mint and coriander leaves, masala, rice and mint and coriander leaves. 

You can add fried onions on it too.

Cover it tightly and cook it on low flame till its cooked 100% and all the water is evaporated.

When its done, shut off the gas. 

Leave it untouched for 10 minutes , you don't want to break the rice.

Serve warm biryani with cucumber raita or dal or as it is.
