Method Of Preparation
Rice
Wash and soak rice for minimum 1 hour. Drain it
before cooking.
Bring water to boil, add salt, ghee, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, bay
leaves, star aniseed, lemon juice and soaked rice to it. Drain it when its 80%
cooked.
Masala
Marinate the fish with ingredients under marinating, for
about 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the fish pieces. Keep this
aside.
In the same oil, add sliced onion, when it turns
yellowish brown add ginger garlic paste, stir and now add garam masala, chilli
powder, turmeric powder, salt and add tomato.
Add
some coriander leaf and mint leaves when tomato is cooked and put in low flame
for about 15-20 minutes. Then add well stirred yogurt and stir it well. Put in
low flame about 2-3 minutes. Switch off the flame.
Layering
Grease
the pressure cooker/a pan with air tight lid with some oil/ghee. Heat it in a
low flame.
Add
half of the cooked rice on top of it add some fried onions, cashews, raisins,
chopped coriander leaf, lemon juice, ghee and put half of the masala on top layer
the fish and again spread the masala on top of the fish. Add the other half of
cooked rice on top of it, add some fried onions, cashews, raisins, chopped
coriander leaf, lemon juice, ghee. OR instead of putting the fish pieces in between you can keep the fish pieces on top of the rice so that you get the fish pieces without any breaking, but i prefer layering it in between so that the masala coats on the fish.
Close
the lid put in full flame for a minute, after that keep in a very low flame for
about 20 -30 minutes.
Open
after 30 minutes.
While serving, take out the fish pieces first and mix well the rice and masala with a fork with out breaking the rice.
Serve with raita of your choice.
Tips: Soaking the rice makes it soft, always don't over stir the cooked rice. Stir with a fork so that the rice won't break
