Arab Lamb Biryani Recipe


6 servings
•6 cups rice
•1 tablespoon saffron
•3 lbs (1.5 kg) lamb leg or shoulder
•2 tablespoons bezar (pepper)
•6 large onions
•1 1/2 cups yellow split peas
•1 cup sultanas
•1/2 cup whole blanched almonds
•4 large tomatoes
•4 tablespoons tomato paste
•2 teaspoons turmeric
•salt to taste
•10 cardamom pods
•6 large cinnamon sticks
•12 cloves
•1 cup corn oil
•10 cups water


Preparation

- Wash and soak rice for 2 hours. Soak saffron in one tablespoon of rosewater, diluted with 1/4 cup of water. Chop onions, boil and drain the yellow peas and chop tomatoes.

- Boil cloves, peppercorns, cardamom and cinnamon in the water and add salt to taste. Once it has started to boil, add the rice. When it is half cooked, drain in a colander and set aside.

-Wash and dry the meat, cut with the bones into 12.5 cm (5") pieces and put into a large pot. Cover with water and bring to the boil.
Continue boiling until meat is tender, skimming off froth where necessary. Drain. Put salt and pepper on meat. Place the meat in a pan and fry in half the corn oil and lightly brown. Remove and place on a dish.

- Add the onions to the oil, brown and then add turmeric and all remaining ingredients. Add salt to taste and stir gently to ensure all is mixed well. Add enough water to make a very thick paste. Cook slowly for five minutes and remove from heat.

- In another large pot, pour in a little corn oil, then place a layer of rice, then meat, then onion and tomato mixture and continue layering until ingredients are all used up. Drizzle the remaining oil over the top, then the saffron. Cover with a cloth and tightly-fitting lid and cook over a very low heat for 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

:salamext:

What if you buy a book that teaches how to make those desserts at home.

Then you could share it with your family and get reward for it :ia:.

So here's the latest on my cooking adventures...

Round 1: Simple Daal. :alhamd: It came out well.

​

Recipe

Ingredients:

1 Onion
2 cloves of garlic crushed
2 tsp of cumin powder
2 tsp of curry powder
Salt as required
4 tbs oil.
250 gms Yellow lentils. The small thin type.
Tomato paste - Passata

Instructions:

Soak lentils for half hour. Then wash 3 times.
Slice onion.
Heat Oil.
Fry 1 onion until brown.
Add crushed garlic for a minute.
Add spices with 50-100 ml of water.
Cook for 3-5 mins until water reduces to half.
Add tomato paste.
Add daal and salt.
Stir until everything is mixed well.
Add water until daal is covered fully.
Cook until daal becomes soft.
Stir regularly making sure it doesn't stick to bottom.
When daal is soft and there is a soupy liquid then it is ready :ia:

Round 2: Baked Salmon. :alhamd: This is probably my best attempt at cooking to date. I'm saving it for tomorrow so I'll let you know how it tasted later :ia:

​

Recipe

Ingredients:

500 lb salmon steak
1 medium sized onion
1 large red chilli pepper
Half a lemon
1 tbs of oil
2 tsp cumin powder
2 tsp tikka masala
2 cloves of crushed garlic
Salt as required

Instructions:

Wash salmon well.
Slice onion.
Slice chilli.
Place salmon in a large bowl.
Make slits all over salmon for spices to soak in.
Squash lemon over salmon steak until all juice is over.
Spread salt all over.
Sprinkle salt and spices all over.
Sprinkle chilli all over.
Rub everything into salmon steak so that the steak can absorb it.
Cover and let it lie for 10-15 mins.
Pre-heat oven to 350 F.
Place salmon steak carefully with all spices on top of it on a large piece of alumimium foil.
Pour all juice and spices onto salmon steak.
Place onion slices all over top of salmon steak.
Wrap and fold foil over in 1 cm folds so that no heat can escape from top and sides.
Place in oven for 30 mins.
After 30 mins take out and brush with oil.
Leave another 15 mins until a little brown.
Then remove from oven and serve with rice or anything else you desire.
And enjoy :ia:
