I love a good biriyani and this recipe is so easy to make and perfect for us slimmers. All the taste without any of the syns!<\/p>\n

Serves: 4<\/strong><\/p>\n

Syns: FREE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Time Taken: 45-60 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Difficulty: Moderate<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h4>\n
    \n
  • 1 kg chicken mince<\/li>\n
  • 2-3 onions, chopped<\/li>\n
  • green chillies, to taste (optional)<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp Turmeric powder<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp garlic\/ginger paste<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp salt<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp cumin powder<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp coriander powder<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp red chilli flakes<\/li>\n
  • 1 tbsp garam masala<\/li>\n
  • Food colouring deep orange\u00a0or yellow, just a few drops<\/li>\n
  • 4\u00a0cups of white rice<\/li>\n
  • Low calorie cooking spray<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Method<\/h4>\n

    Put mince and all the spices in pan, add enough water\u00a0to cover\u00a0mince meat and cook for\u00a0around\u00a030\u00a0minutes.<\/p>\n

    Boil the rice separately.\u00a0In a\u00a0pan of boiling\u00a0salted\u00a0water, add your rice and cook\u00a0for about 8 minutes. You do not want to cook the\u00a0rice fully at this stage. Once cooked, drain the water\u00a0off the rice and place the rice in a colander.<\/p>\n

    In the pan you cooked the rice, spray the bottom and sides of it with a low calorie cooking spray.\u00a0Put in a layer of\u00a0the rice at the bottom of pan then layer some keema on top and layer again with rice and sprinkle with both food colours then keep repeating the method until rice\/keema finishes ending with rice.<\/p>\n

    Cook for about 20 minutes on low heat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
