Chicken Dum Biryani

In some ghee/oil, Fry some jeera, onions, and tej patta, if you have that biryani flower like thing, add that too - add basmati rice and fry until you can smell the rice (about 5 mins or so)
Cook it, put less water than usual, so the rice is dry and not sticky.

For the chicken:
Heat some oil, add 1 tbsp garam masala, stir for about 5 secs, add 1 big onion, cut into small pieces
Add 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste, 4-5 green chillies
Stir until golden brown
Add the chicken, salt to taste, mix
Stir, cook for 15 mins
In some oil, add onions(more the better), ginger garlic, green chilles
Once fried , add 1/2 tbsp garam masala powder(either fresh or readymade)
Add 2 tomatos(if small). If big, one is enough
add turmeric, red chilli powder
fry the tomato until fully cooked and oil separates
Cook with lid on until chicken is fully cooked and leaves water.
Once cooked, remove the lid and let the water evaporate and the chicken is browned on the sides
Add pudina leaves, coriander leaves if available
fry the chicken until oil comes out
make sure some sauce is there

Add a layer of chicken at the bottom, layer of rice, layer of chicken again and layer of rice.
Optionally, you can add some kewra water to this
Optionally you can add some saffron dissolved in water and sprinkle
Put it in the oven so the flavor spreads to the meat and rice. At about 350 for 10-15 mins. Be careful, so it doesn't stick to the dish.
