Tamil style Mutton Biryani instructions

1. In a pressure cooker, heat the oil and add the star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon stick and the ground masala paste and fry for a minute. Add the goat pieces, a cup or two of water (depending on the amount of meat), required amount of salt and pressure cook the meat for a few whistles.
2. When the pressure has released, measure the gravy in the cooker and set aside. We will need 6 cups of liquid to cook the 3 cups of rice including the gravy, water and coconut milk.
3. In a large frying pan, add the ghee and transfer the cooked meat to the pan. Saute for a few mins, add the soaked rice and pour 6 cups of liquid (gravy, water, coconut milk). Add some salt if required. Cover and cook on medium-low heat.
4. You can skip the frying pan step, by removing the gravy from the cooker and adding the rice, the measured 6 cups of liquid, salt, and cooking it in the pressure cooker for one whistle.
5. Once the rice is cooked, garnish with some coriander leaves and serve with a raita.
6. I served mine with a raita and some Parsee Chicken Curry.
