- Cut 3 onions into thin slices for barista.
- Heat 2 cups of cooking oil in a broad pan and deep fry onions into light golden brown. Transfer to a kitchen towel.
- Clean and prick the potatoes and boil them in water. I microwaved them for 8 minutes.
- Peel and cut each potato into 4 halves.
- Fry them in the same oil where onions are fried to light golden brown.
- Transfer to a dish.
- Now transfer the remaining oil to a big heavy bottomed sauce pan and add in 3 chopped onions.
- Saute for 5-6 minutes and then add in 3 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste.

- Stir and cook for 4-5 minutes and then add in the chicken pieces.
- Stir and cook for 5 minutes more and then add in previously prepared biryani masala along with whole garam masalas like black cardamom, green cardamom, cinnamon, cloves and black peppers.
- Mix everything well with a spatula and then add in 1 and 1/2 cup of yoghurt. Also add allu bukhara.
- Again mix well, add 1 cup of water, cover and cook in medium heat for about 20 minutes or until chicken cooks.
- In the mean time clean and soak 2 kg of long grain basmati rice for atleast 1/2 an hour.
- Also soak saffron in warm milk.
- When chicken cooks completely remove from heat. Do not completely dry up the gravy.
- Add rice in boiling water with 1 lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of salt. Drain when rice cooks 70%.
- Take a individual size earthen pot and place some prepared chicken curry at the bottom. Also place 2 fried potato pieces.

- Roll a lemon size ball from the dough to make a thin roti.
- Cover the biryani bowl with the roti and seal it properly.
- Brush little ghee on the top and bake the pot in pre heated oven for 15 minutes at 180 degree C.
- Reduce the heat to 150 degree and bake for another 10 minutes. Your scrumptious biryani is ready now.
