Biryani

One-pot cooking not only saves on washing-up but also stops flavour being lost during the cooking process. Bring this delicious recipe to the table and serve straight from the dish - by Amy Sinclair

Biryani
Prep: 10 Minutes - Cook: 50 Minutes - Easy - Serves 6
Proudly supported by

I’m a big fan of Indian food, and love the range of regional dishes. Biryani is a real favourite of mine, especially when cooked dum-style, whereby the ingredients steam in their own juices under a dough crust, which traps in all the amazing spices. Instead of dough, I’ve used a tight lid of tin foil, which works just as well.

Ingredients

400g lamb neck, cut into small cubes

4 garlic cloves, grated

1 tbsp finely grated ginger

1 tbsp sunflower oil

1 large onion, chopped

1 tbsp each cumin seeds and nigella seeds

1 tbsp Madras spice paste

200g basmati rice, rinsed well

8 curry leaves

400ml good-quality lamb or chicken stock

100g paneer, chopped

200g spinach, cooked and water squeezed out

To serve

chopped coriander

sliced green chillies

plain yogurt

Method

  1. Toss the lamb in a bowl with the garlic, ginger and a large pinch of salt. Marinate in the fridge overnight or for at least a couple of hours.

  2. Heat the oil in a casserole. Fry the lamb for 5-10 mins until starting to brown. Add the onion, cumin seeds and nigella seeds, and cook for 5 mins until starting to soften. Stir in the curry paste, then cook for 1 min more. Scatter in the rice and curry leaves, then pour over the stock and bring to the boil. Meanwhile, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.

  3. Stir in the paneer, spinach and some seasoning. Cover the dish with a tight lid of foil, then put the lid on to ensure it’s well sealed. Cook in the oven for 20 mins, then leave to stand, covered, for 10 mins. Bring the dish to the table, remove the lid and foil, scatter with the coriander and chillies and serve with yogurt on the side.
