🛒  Ingredients:
- 10 tablespoons of rapeseed oil
- 2 whole chopped onions
- 850 grams of Basmati rice
- 1.7 litres of water
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons of ginger garlic paste
- 1 whole chopped tomato
- 2 tablespoons of chilli powder
- 1 tablespoon of coriander powder
- ½ tablespoon of turmeric powder
- A pinch of whole garam masala
- 1 whole chopped chicken
- 2 whole green chillies

📖  Recipe
1) Pour 10 tablespoons of rapeseed oil into the pan to heat up.
2) Add 2 chopped onions into the pan and cook until they’re golden-brown.
3) Add 1 tablespoon of salt and stir in.
4) Add 2 tablespoons of ginger garlic and 1 whole chopped tomato and mix in well.
5) Time to add some spices! Add 2 tablespoons of chilli powder, 1 tablespoon of coriander powder, ½ a tablespoon of turmeric powder and a pinch of whole garam masala. Stir this all in.
6) Pour about a fifth of the water and stir to create a nice paste.
7) Add in a whole chopped chicken.
8) Keep stirring for a few minutes whilst the chicken starts to cook so it soaks up all that flavour.
9) Pour in the remainder of the water and put the lid on the pan to let the water boil for 5 minutes or so.
10) Add 850 grams of Basmati rice.
11) Stir the rice in and add 2 whole green chillies in for an extra bit of spice.
12) Pop the lid back on and let it boil for a further 5 minutes.
13) Check how the rice is doing and give it a stir before putting the lid back on for another 5 minutes.
14) Remove the lid and place a sheet of foil over the top of the pan to steam the rice and make it nice and fluffy. Place the lid back on top and leave it for another 10 minutes or so.
15) Mix the rice lightly with a fork.
16) Serve up and enjoy! We bagsy the drumstick!
