Basmati rice 700 g
Salt 1 tsp or to taste
Red Chilli Powder 1/2 tsp
Degi Mirch powder 1 tsp
Turmeric Powder 1/2 tsp

Oil 60 or 70 ml
Onions 4 medium
Whole Spices
Fresh Coriander
Fresh Mints
Garam Masala Powder 1 tsp
Kewra water 2 tbsp
Rose water 2 tbsp
saffron milk 50 ml
Instructions:
Clean and wash the chicken thoroughly for at least 3 times. Add a some salt and 1 tbsp vinegar, while washing the chicken(this will help to get rid off the smell to an extent)
Marinate the chicken with Salt, Red Chilli Powder, Degi Mirch powder,
Turmeric Powder, Coriander powder, Cumins Powder, Dry ginger powder, Garlic paste, and Yoghourt.
After Marinate, keep it aside for at least ½ hour.
To cook basmati rice separately, soak it for about an hour in water. Wash the rice gently to remove only the starch and avoid breaking the grains. Meanwhile, fill a big vessel halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Add 1 tsp cooking oil and 1 tbsp salt once the water begins to boil. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes after adding the soaked and washed rice, stirring gently once. Keep an eye on the rice because some brands of basmati rice cook quickly while others take longer.
My rice was cooked in 6 minutes. Drain the water immediately and spread the rice on a large plate.
In a deep bottomed pan add oil, once oil gets heated add 4 medium onion slices and fry it until brown (don’t burn the onions). Remove half browned onion from oil and keep it aside. This will be used for garnishing and will make the layers.
In the same cooking part add marinated chicken and (add a little bit of water in bowl clean spices with water)mix well. Move until it starts boiling, then lit cook for 10 mins. After 10 minutes remove some chicken gravy and keep it aside.
Now add half cooked basmati rice over the chicken and gently spread the rice to cover the chicken. add 2 tbsp chopped Fresh Coriander and Fresh Mints add 1tbsp Kewra water, 1tbsp Rose water and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. At this stage you can use the gravy that you removed, over the rice this will add flavours to the rice and also give colour

Aged Butter Smen
Smen is a Moroccan preserved butter that is known as having more of a cheesy taste than a butter flavor. It is made from clarified butter and salt and is left to ferment, where it develops a strong taste and smell. It can also be made with herbs.
Moroccan dishes favor smen, an aged butter comparable to Asian ghee. Clarified butter, dried herbs, and salt go into making smen. It is matured in little clay pots in a cool, dry environment until it develops a Roquefort-like aroma and consistency.
