Malabar style chicken dum biriyani is popular in the Muslim community of North Kerala. A korma is made with chicken and spices and that is layered with flavoured cooked rice and baked to perfection. This is slightly different from Hyderabadi dum biriyani and if you are living in Kerala you must have tasted this biriyani atleast once. This recipe is actually from a very close friend of my amma's and she has been making this for some 40 plus years and this is the biriyani I grew up on and amma only makes this biriyani. The cheat she does is when making the korma, she grinds some cashewnuts, raisins etc with green chilies, shallots (cheriya ulli), and coriander leaves; which can also be ground separately. But since she has been making this biriyani from many many years, amma just made the whole biriyani process easy and simple; which you can understand when you watch my video. Do not get put off by the long ingredient list; its because of the whole spices used in korma and rice.
