Happy Deepavali to our Hindu friends, do we have a treat for you!
Something we’re all familiar with, Nasi Biryani is known for the aromatic rice as the base for the meat on the dish. For this healthier recipe, we’ve used coconut oil as a replacement for ghee.
Basmati rice also has a low –meidum glycaemic index, which is a good touch for those who are health conscious, yet still want the most in taste! We used saffron in the rice, mixed with cinnamon, star anise, pandan leaves, lemongrass and more to bring out the most of the taste in the rice. The marinated chicken thighs work excellently as a paring with the fragrant rice, finished with the garnishing like raisins, fried onions, cashew nuts, and coriander leaves.
A lot of ingredients? True? But tastes good? DEFINITELY!
