Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp bahrat mixed spice (baharat aka middle east mixed spices - the real mix, i do not suggest using allspice as a substitute as it will be rather bland)
- 1 whole dried lime (periced a few times with a skewer. called loomi & noomi basra, please do not omit this!)
- 3 whole cardamom pods, bruised
- 2 paper towels, cut in 2
- 1 lime, cut (for serving)
- plain yogurt (for serving)
Directions:
- If using the oven method heat to 350°F.
- Rince chicken and remove skin.
- Rub with sea salt and bahrat.
- Gently fry in 1 1/2 tbs butter until browned on both sides.
- Transfer to a pot, add light olive oil, stock, crushed garlic, loomi, cinnamon, cardamom, curry leaves and tomato. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile fry slices of onion in remaining butter until soft and browned, remove from heat and add dark raisins to onions.
- Taste stock pot for salt.
- Rice white Basmati rice until the water runs clear.
- Remove chicken pieces from pot and add rice then set them on top of the rice with the onion/raisin mixture.
- Bring to a boil and then cover pot and reduce heat to low for 15 minutes.
- Once the liquid has been absorbed, arrange the 4 sheets of paper towel around the pot's rim and tightly cover. (This makes for fluffier rice). Also you may bake it in the oven until done from this point which I prefer as I find it cooks the rice more evenly in a greased pan.
- Remove from heat and leave to steam, unopened, for 15-20 minutes.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot on a platter with lime wedges or halves and plain yogurt.
