Beef Biriyani (Kerala Style)

@Meghana

I cooked biriyani for the very first time yesterday and i loved it…thank you so much for this recipe…qq… did you use aniseed powder or fennel powder for making the marinationmasala?and also, before you start layering, did you add ghee into the pan? I think my rice got a little bit sticky… could you please give me some tips to avoid that stickiness… ? I am so happy it tasted too yum though… thanks again… I wish you had uploaded a video of this recipe so that I could make sure I didn’t miss out any single step​:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:…

Thanks a lot for trying out my recipe! Happy to hear that you liked it. While layering the biriyani, I add 1-2 tsp ghee in every layer. But if you wanna cut down on ghee, you can avoid it. While cooking rice, the moment you don’t find any water at the top, you can switch off the pan. But keep it closed for another 10 - 15 minutes. By this time, water would be completely absorbed, and rice would be cooked. Open the pan and fluff the rice otherwise, rice will get sticky towards down the pan.

Thank you so much for the recipe. Will definitely try. Just wanted to ask… In the layering does beef masala go as first layer or rice?

Thanks Jane
This turned out quite good
But the gravy base was not as red as show in the picture
Which masala brand do you use?

[JaneJojo]

Thanks Savio for trying it out!! Masala used in the recipe doesn’t really make it red…

I tried it yesterday and it was the best beef biriyani i ate in my entire life i had no time to keep the beef marinated for 1 hour. I kept it for around 10 mins. Rice soaked around half an hour. I had no curd or lemon with me, so added a bit of vinegar. No cashews. Just added the ground coconut paste. I had no fennel or fennel powder. Added a bit more garam masala and home made meat masala

due to that. Still the beef masala tasted so good. I think I could make a beef roast using that recipe. It was that tasty. I made the rice the usual way I make ghee rice. And onion was fried in oil. It turned out so good.
