With Eid round the corner, i treated myself with this prawns biryani * Prawns Biryani: 1) Wash and Soak Basmati rice for 30 mins. 2) Finely slice onions. Chop one green chilli and lots of coriander and mint leaves. Shell and devein the prawns. 3) I made my own garam masala for this biryani: i) Broil some Green cardamom, Black cardamom, Cinnamon, Bay leaves, Cloves, Black peppercorns and Mace. Grind the spices to a fine powder. 4) Heat ghee in a pan and add Asafoetida and cumin seeds. 5) Add finely sliced onions to the ghee. Add a pinch of salt and sauté the onions till they are brown. 6) Once the onions are brown add ginger and garlic paste and mix well. Add very little water and let ginger-garlic paste cook. 7) Add coriander powder, cumin powder, red chilli powder and turmeric. Roast the masala for sometime. 8) Add 2 tablespoons on whisked curd, chopped green chilli and cook. 9) Once the masala is cooked (you’ll see the ghee separate from the masala) add prawns. And season the curry. Prawns will cook quickly. Keep the curry aside. 10) In separate pan put water to boil. Add salt, one slit green chilli and whole garam masala (Green cardamom, Black cardamom, Cinnamon, Bay leaves, Cloves, Black peppercorns and Mace). 11) Once the water is boiling add the soaked rice and cook till rice is 3/4 done. 12) Drain the rice and remove the chilli and whole garam masala (as much as you can). 13) In a thick bottom saucepan, put some rice to form base layer. On top of the rice add some Kewra (pandan flower) water, rose water and generous amount of chopped coriander and mint leaves. 14) Next layer add the prawns curry and top it with some coriander and mint leave again. 15) Last layer of rice with Kewra, rose water, coriander and mint leaves and saffron soaked in warm milk. Drop one or two teaspoonful of ghee on top again. 🤤 16) Seal the lid with dough and put the pan on very low heat for 20 - 30 mins. Serve hot.

I can’t find words to express the joy of visiting @masalaabar After a long time, have found an Indian restaurant that excites the palate with magic of flavour and taste. Also the food is from Mumbai and Maharashtra so close to my heart. Everything is worth trying but i would recommend to try Vadapav sliders, pani puri shots, chaat and Amritsari kulcha. Look out for specials: i have tried the Kolhapuri platter with Bhakri and Tambda rassa set few months ago.. recently Puran poli and i heard next week is going to be Misal pav- can’t wait to go back. * * * #restaurantreview #restaurant #review #indiancuisine #indianfood #foodiesofinstagram #foodiegram #instafoodie #instafood #foodstagram #foodblog #foodblogger #foodlover #foodaddict #sgfoodie #foodies #foodie (at Masalaa Bar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNRxC7QFSVj/?igshid=94ahh2rwl6b4
