Method
- Toss the chicken with yogurt, garlic, ginger, garam masala, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, salt and oil.
- In a heavy pot sauté sliced onion in ghee until gold. Add the chicken and marinade. Cover 5 minutes, then cook uncovered 5 minutes.
- Scatter rinsed basmati over the chicken. Pour in hot stock so it just covers the rice. Dot with extra ghee.
- Cover tightly, cook on low 20 minutes, rest 10 minutes. Fluff, scatter coriander and serve.
Shopping tip
Arroz basmati Cigala, iogurte and garam masala are easy. Açafrão em fio is optional; a pinch of turmeric in warm water gives yellow patches.
