Serves - 3 to 4
For Marinating the Jackfruit:
250 grams raw jackfruit, cut into cubes
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder
3 teaspoons thick curd
For Cooking the Rice:
2 cups basmati rice
4 cups water
1.5 teaspoons salt
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1-inch cinnamon stick (dalchini)
3 to 4 cloves
2 to 3 cardamoms
2 tablespoons ghee
For the Masala:
1 tablespoon oil
2 tablespoons ghee
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
A few peppercorns
1-inch cinnamon stick (dalchini)
2 to 3 cardamoms
2 large onions, thinly sliced
Salt (as needed for seasoning)
1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
1 large tomato, chopped
Chopped coriander stalks (amount as desired)
1 handful coriander leaves
1 handful mint leaves
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1/2 teaspoon biryani masala powder
1/2 cup beaten curd
1/2 cup hot water
For Garnishing:
Fresh coriander leaves
Fresh mint leaves
Fried onions
Step 1: Marinate the Jackfruit Take 250 grams of raw jackfruit and cut it into medium-sized cubes. To marinate, add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon of coriander powder, 1 teaspoon of red chili powder, and 3 teaspoons of thick curd to the jackfruit cubes. Combine all ingredients well and marinate the jackfruit thoroughly. Set it aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Rice Take 2 cups of basmati rice, wash it, and soak it in water for 20 minutes. Set it aside. Heat a vessel and add 4 cups of water. The rice-to-water ratio is 1:2. Bring the water to a boil, then add 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 2 bay leaves, 1/2 teaspoon of fennel seeds, a 1-inch cinnamon stick, 3 to 4 cloves, 2 to 3 cardamoms, and 2 tablespoons of ghee. Once the water starts boiling, add the soaked rice and mix well. Stir occasionally and check for doneness after 5 minutes. Once the rice is cooked, switch off the flame and set it aside.
Step 3: Prepare the Masala Heat another vessel on medium flame and add 1 tablespoon of oil and 2 tablespoons of ghee. Once heated, add 1/2 teaspoon of fennel seeds, a few peppercorns, a 1-inch cinnamon stick, and 2 to 3 cardamoms. When the aroma of the spices is released, add 2 large thinly sliced onions. Add a pinch of salt and cook the onions until translucent, then continue cooking until they turn light golden brown. Add 1 tablespoon of ginger-garlic paste and cook until the raw smell disappears. Next, add 1 large chopped tomato and cook until the tomatoes are soft and mushy. Add chopped coriander stalks and mix well. Then add a handful of coriander leaves and mint leaves, and mix again. Once the oil starts separating, add 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon of red chili powder, 1 teaspoon of coriander powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of biryani masala powder. Stir in 1/2 cup of beaten curd and mix well. Once the oil separates, add 1/2 cup of hot water and combine everything thoroughly. Add the marinated jackfruit to the masala, mix well, cover, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Check the doneness of the jackfruit.
Step 4: Assemble the Biryani Layer the cooked rice over the jackfruit masala. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves, mint leaves, and fried onions. Serve the biryani hot with your choice of raita or side dish.
Enjoy your delicious Raw Jackfruit Biryani!"
