Hey you dont mean to tell me you never had that by us before amirah? :eek: amazing!!!

Well what this sister served you was 'Ketupat' that's the rice cut up into squares thingy
And the meat was probably 'rendang' :)

Ketupat is easy!! traditionally they're wrapped up in banana leaves and boiled, but nowadays people are too lazy to weave the banana leaf cases ;D

So anyway, the QUICK way to do it is just to get some sticky rice...not parboiled rice.....what kind of rice gets stickky when you cook it? Jasmine rice? yeah I think it's jasmine rice :X
So take some of that and place it into a sandwhich sized plastic bag. (Make sure this plastic bag can endure boiling water for a time span of 2 hours at least.) Fill up the bag 3/4 full and fold the top a little and staple closed (to make sure rice doesn't fall out )then prick holes all over it with a fork and then place into a pot of boiling water, and boil until rice is fully cooked. Remove from pan and drain and place on a tray and place something heavy ontop of the rice cakes so that the rice will stick together. When cold cut into cubes and serve with rendang or peanut sauce or stir fried satay......yummy!!!
 
salam

pakistani chicken biryani (my mom's recepi :p )

Serves about 4-6 people

You will need two 4-quart pots .You will also need to buy a spice mix packet called “Shan Masala” from the Indian/Pakistani grocery store. There are many types of Shan spices for different dishes, you will need to obtain the one for “Bombay Biryani.”
Additional ingredients include two pounds of boneless chicken, two cups of uncooked rice, half a cup of oil, one big onion, one or two medium-sized tomatoes, ginger paste, garlic paste, half a cup of plain yogurt, four cups of water, and half a cup of warm milk/water.

1. Soak rice in cold water for 30-45 minutes.
2. Cut two lbs. Of chicken into pieces (It is up to you on how large you want the pieces.)
3.Heat half a cup of oil in one pot.
4. Cut one onion and two tomatoes into cubes and start frying them in the pot with the heated oil for about 20 minutes.
5.Put in chicken, one tbsp of garlic paste, one tbsp of ginger paste, half a cup of yogurt and one packet of Shan spice mix into the pot with the fried onions and tomatoes. Cook for about 30-35 minutes.
6.While the chicken is cooking, heat 4 cups of water into the second pot. Drain the soaked rice, and place rice into the second pot when the water starts to boil. Cook the rice only until it is half cooked (about 10 minutes). Drain the rice into the sink (Be cautious here because the steam of the rice can burn your hands very easily).

After the chicken has been cooked, start layering the rice and chicken into the pot. Start with a layer of rice at the bottom of the pot, then spread a good amount of the chicken on top of the rice, then layer again twice. Repeat this until the chicken and rice have been used up. The top and the bottom layer should be rice. Sprinkle the coriander and mint leaves over the top layer.

8.After you are done layering, do not stir.

9 Mix the food color into half a cup of milk/water and sprinkle over the rice.

10 cover with a tight fitting lid and allow cooking for 20 more minutes. Now you are ready to eat! The best way to eat Biryani is with yogurt and salad on the side.

Note: Sister there is also written biryani recipe at the back of the Bombay Biryani’s packet. This recipe is a bit different from packet one because my mom add few more ingredients to make it more tasty………its up to u which one u want to try........
 
Oh no, this thread reminded me I have to make the raita this evening. I wonder if we have enough yoghurt...
