Make your normal curry-base with meat, chickend or vege with the briyani masala with a bit of yoghurt but lots of onions.
As for the rice, you need to soak for 1/2 hour and then boil it separately until it is about 90% cooked. Drain the water - i use a strainer which is effective.
While the rice and the curry are cooking, cut more onions and prepare some frozen peas.
Fry onions and then the peas separately in ghee (it smells and tastes good!!).
Chop some coriander leaves for garnishing.
In the pot containing the briyani paste/curry, transfer a good layer of rice, add a layer of onions and peas and then layer again with the rice, onions, peas and continue until you have layed all the prepared stuff. It is best to do this when the curry is still hot and the rice a bit cool so that the rice doesn't get soaked or overcook.
Garnish with coriander.
Leave it for about 1-2 hours.
Mix the rice and curry together - you should get rice that looks as though it is coated with the curry paste yet quite dry and oily. .
Yummy!
