Method
Marinate chicken with curd, ginger garlic paste, biryani masala and salt.
Heat oil in a pressure cooker. Add sliced onions and fry till golden brown.
Add marinated chicken and cook till the raw smell goes away.
Add soaked rice and mix gently.
Add water. Normally 1 cup rice needs 2 cups water, but because curd and chicken release water, add 1 cup less than usual.
Pressure cook on high flame for 4 whistles.
Let it rest closed for 5 minutes.
Open, fluff gently and serve hot.
