How to cook rice for dum biryani(arisi padham) and layer the rice for hyderabadi dum biryani:
Rice consistency is very important. As i said before the rice should have to cook 3/4th that is if you touch it with your hand the rice should little soft and you can able to press. Stop the rice cooker at this level drain the rice and remove the excess water. Veggie and meat takes time to cook so first start cooking the dum masala with veggie or meat first and then you can start cooking the rice. After putting the dum don’t mix the rice hardly. beacuse the rice might chances to break.
How to put dum with Charcoal for hyderabadi dum biryani:
Actually people make dum biryani in a big mud stove called munaduppu or kari aduppu. Once the rice added to the masala, we have add this burnt charcoal on top to stop the steam come out from the biryani pot at the same time,the rice also cook well in the steam. That is why we are adding the charcoal at the top of the biryani pot. The smoky flavour of dum biryani is real methoad making dum biryani. I know now a days we are not using any kariaduppu so you can get the BBQ charcoal in all the supermarkets. Get it burn it in stove top and then use the tong,keep it on top of the lid. i hope you can understand how to put Dum now.
Tips to make Perfect Hyderabadi Dum Biryani:
- While grinding the biryani masala, don’t ground every thing into very smooth paste. Try to grind it coarsely.
- I have added the vegetarian chicken, if you are vegetarian you can soya chunks, mixed vegetable like carrot,beans,peas etc or cauliflower, panner. If you are non veg lover then you can add chicken or any other meat or egg also. But cooking time for everything is different.
- i have added oil to my birayani you can add ghee.
- Cooking the rice is very important, don’t break the rice while cooking.Layer it carefully
- i just added 2 cups rice so i can put one layer in dum but if you added more rice then put one layer of rice in between garnishing and the again another layer of rice and again garnishing.
- after putting the dum don’t open the lid immediately let it undisturbed atleast for 20mins.
How to serve Dum Biryani:
As i told serving the Dum biryani itself is an art. First dig the laddle inside directly into biryani take out the masala chicken first keep in plate and then the rice part.If you serve like this the serving plate looks very colourful. Serve it with biryani kathirikai or chalna or raita.
