Ingredients:

For the rice:

* 2 cups basmati rice
* 4 cups water
* 1 bay leaf
* 2 green cardamoms
* 2 cloves
* 1 cinnamon stick
* Salt to taste

For the chicken marinade:

* 500g chicken (bone-in or boneless)
* 1 cup yogurt
* 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
* 1 teaspoon red chili powder
* 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
* 1 teaspoon garam masala
* Salt to taste

For the biryani:

* 2 large onions, thinly sliced
* 2 tomatoes, chopped
* 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
* 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
* 2-3 green chilies, slit
* 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
* 1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves, chopped
* 1/2 cup fried onions (for garnish)
* 1/2 teaspoon saffron strands (soaked in 2 tablespoons warm milk)
* 2 tablespoons ghee or oil
* Salt to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the rice:

a. Rinse the rice thoroughly and soak it for 20-30 minutes.

b. In a large pot, boil water with the bay leaf, cardamoms, cloves, cinnamon stick, and a pinch of salt.

c. Add the soaked rice and cook until it's 70-80% done (the rice should still have a bite to it). Drain and set aside.

2. Marinate the chicken:

a. Mix the yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt in a bowl.

b. Add the chicken pieces and coat them well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (overnight for best results).

3. Cook the chicken:

a. Heat 2 tablespoons of ghee or oil in a large pan.

b. Add the sliced onions and fry until golden brown. Remove half of the fried onions and set aside for garnish.

c. Add the ginger-garlic paste and sauté until the raw smell goes away.

d. Add chopped tomatoes and cook until soft.

e. Add the marinated chicken and cook until the chicken is nearly done.

f. Add green chilies, half of the mint, and coriander leaves. Stir and cook for a few more minutes.

4. Layer the biryani:

a. In a heavy-bottomed pot, spread a layer of chicken at the bottom.

b. Add a layer of half-cooked rice on top of the chicken.

c. Drizzle saffron milk, sprinkle the remaining mint and coriander leaves, and garnish with fried onions.

d. Repeat layering if needed.

5. Dum cooking (slow cooking):

a. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid or seal it with dough to trap the steam.

b. Cook on low heat for 20-25 minutes (you can place the pot over a tawa or griddle to prevent direct heat).

c. Turn off the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Serve:

Fluff up the biryani gently with a fork. Serve hot with raita or a side salad. Enjoy.

Sattu Baati and Chokha Recipe

Sattu Baati

Ingredients:

For Baati dough:

Whole wheat flour – 2 cups

Ghee (clarified butter) – 4 tablespoons

Salt – 1/2 teaspoon

Water – as required to knead

For Sattu stuffing:

Roasted gram flour (sattu) – 1 cup

Mustard oil – 1 tablespoon

Green chilies – 1-2 (finely chopped)

Onion – 1 small (finely chopped)

Coriander leaves – 2 tablespoons (chopped)

Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon

Ajwain (carom seeds) – 1/2 teaspoon

Salt – to taste

Steps to Make Sattu Baati:

1. Prepare the Dough:

In a large mixing bowl, take the whole wheat flour, ghee, and salt.

Rub the ghee into the flour to get a crumbly texture.

Gradually add water and knead into a semi-soft dough. Cover and set aside for 15-20 minutes.

2. Prepare the Sattu Filling:

In a separate bowl, mix sattu, mustard oil, green chilies, onions, coriander, ajwain, salt, and lemon juice.

Combine everything well, adjusting seasoning to taste. If the mixture feels too dry, add a little water (1-2 teaspoons) to make it moist but not wet.

3. Stuffing and Shaping the Baati:

Divide the dough into small lemon-sized balls.

Flatten each ball into a disc, place a spoonful of the sattu filling in the center, and fold the edges of the dough to seal it.

Gently roll the filled dough ball between your palms to smoothen it.

4. Baking the Baati:

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Place the stuffed baatis on a baking tray.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway to ensure even cooking, until they are golden brown and crisp.

Alternatively, baatis can be cooked over traditional coal or wood fire or even fried in ghee.

5. Serving the Baati:

Once baked, dip each baati in melted ghee and serve hot with chokha.

Chokha (Smoky Mashed Vegetables)

Ingredients:

Brinjal (eggplant) – 1 large

Tomatoes – 2 medium

Potatoes – 2 medium (boiled)

Green chilies – 2 (finely chopped)

Onion – 1 small (finely chopped)

Garlic – 4-5 cloves (finely chopped)

Mustard oil – 1 tablespoon

Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon

Coriander leaves – 2 tablespoons (chopped)

Salt – to taste

Steps to Make Chokha:

1. Roasting Vegetables:

Roast the brinjal and tomatoes directly over an open flame or in an oven until their skins are charred and soft.

Once roasted, let them cool slightly. Peel the charred skin and mash the roasted brinjal and tomatoes together in a bowl.

Mash the boiled potatoes separately.

2. Mixing the Chokha:

In a bowl, combine the mashed brinjal, tomatoes, and potatoes.

Add chopped green chilies, onions, garlic, mustard oil, lemon juice, and salt.

Mix everything well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

3. Serving the Chokha:

Serve chokha with sattu baati for a delicious, smoky, and flavorful combination.

Tips for Beginners:

1. For Baati:

Ensure the dough is not too soft, as it can break while stuffing. A firm dough makes it easier to handle.

Be generous with ghee for a rich flavor.

If you do not have an oven, baatis can be fried or cooked in a heavy-bottomed pan covered with a lid (on low heat).

2. For Chokha:

Roasting the vegetables directly on a flame gives the best smoky flavor. If using an oven, broil them for similar results.

Adjust the spice level by adding more or fewer green chilies.

3. Time Management:

Prepare the chokha while the baatis are baking to save time.

4. Mustard Oil:

Mustard oil enhances the authentic taste, but you can substitute with olive oil if you prefer a milder flavor.

Enjoy your homemade sattu baati and chokha.
