Chicken Biryani (Kenyan Style) Biryanis are really a meal in one and usually eaten with a full fat plain yoghurt and a good mixed salad.

There are many recipes for this very popular dish, my favourite one is from my friend in Nakuru, her hands move so quickly when she is in the kitchen, I have to be quick with my write-ups!

I'm going to guess this one is not Indian restaurant standard.

But I haven't seen anyone do it.

Take a bowl add chicken, add ginger garlic paste, green chilli paste, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, daniya powder, cup of curd, squeezed lemon, garam masala powder, fried onions, kasturi methi, chopped coriander leaves, chopped mint leaves and salt to taste. Mix it well and marinate it for an hour..

  2. After an hour take a pan heat oil and cook the marinated chicken for 70%..

  6. Turn off the stove and serve it hot with raitha….

So I'm going to say this one is a glebekitchen special.

The magic in a biryani comes from cooking the chicken in a sealed pot.

This biryani is a one pot meal and is easy to make.

Though the ingredients list is big, the method is simple.

Some people make biryani with ready-made biryani masala.
