Ingredients
- 500 g minced meat Lamb
- 1 onion Finely chopped
- 2 tsp ginger paste
- 2 tsp garlic paste
- 2 tsp garam masala
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp chilli powder
- salt To taste
- 200 g rice
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 3 cardamom pods
- 3 cloves
- 1 bay leaf
- saffron Soaked in 2 tbsp warm milk
- Coriander For garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the minced lamb, chopped onion, ginger paste, garlic paste, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and form small meatballs (koftas) from this mixture. Set aside.
- Wash the basmati rice thoroughly and soak it in water for 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick, green cardamom pods, cloves, and bay leaf. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
- Add the koftas to the pan and cook until they are browned on all sides. Remove the koftas and set them aside.
- In the same pan, add the soaked and drained rice. Stir-fry the rice for a few minutes until it's well-coated with the spices and oil.
- Pour in 1 litre of water and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the rice is almost cooked, about 10 minutes.
- Place the koftas on top of the partially cooked rice. Drizzle the saffron-infused milk over the rice and cover the pan. Cook on low heat for another 10-15 minutes or until the rice is fully cooked and the koftas are tender.
- Remove from heat, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve hot.
