Gluten-Free Indian Biryani Ingredients: 2 cups gluten-free basmati rice 1 pound boneless chicken, lamb, or vegetables (choose based on your preference) 1 large onion, thinly sliced 2 tablespoons gluten-free biryani spice blend 1/2 cup plain yogurt (make sure it's gluten-free) 2 cloves garlic, minced 1-inch piece of ginger, grated 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or ghee Salt, to taste Fresh cilantro leaves and fried onions, for garnish (optional) Instructions: Rinse the gluten-free basmati rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain and set aside. In a bowl, combine the gluten-free biryani spice blend, plain yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to create the marinade. Add the boneless chicken, lamb, or vegetables to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor. Heat the vegetable oil or ghee in a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onion to the pan and sauté until it becomes caramelized and brown, about 15-20 minutes. Remove half of the fried onions and set them aside for garnish. Add the marinated meat or vegetables to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are partially cooked and the yogurt mixture thickens. In a large pot, bring plenty of water to a boil. Add the rinsed and drained gluten-free basmati rice. Cook the rice until it's about 70% cooked (still has a slight bite). Drain the rice and set it aside. Layer the partially cooked rice on top of the partially cooked meat or vegetables in the pan. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and reduce the heat to low. Allow the biryani to steam for 20-25 minutes until the rice is fully cooked and the flavors meld together. Garnish the gluten-free Indian Biryani with the reserved fried onions and fresh cilantro leaves, if desired. Serve your delicious gluten-free Indian Biryani hot with raita (yogurt sauce) or a side salad for a satisfying and aromatic meal. Enjoy the rich and fragrant flavors of this classic dish!
