Shan Fish Biryani
£0.99
Prices checked
Stirred into hot oil, this spice mix releases its aroma quickly, turning fragrant within moments and colouring the base of a biryani a rich, warm tone. It is designed for one job: giving fish biryani real depth without extra guesswork in the kitchen. Use it to marinate fish pieces before frying or grilling, then layer with part-cooked rice for a classic dum-style biryani. It also works well stirred through a simple fish curry when you want the same biryani character without the layering step. Many home cooks use it as the base for a weekend dish, building up the layers of rice and fish before a final slow steam to let the flavours settle. For best results, let the marinated fish rest for a short while before cooking, so the spice mix has time to take hold. Keep the pack sealed and stored in a cool, dry cupboard once opened, away from direct heat or moisture, to keep it in good condition between uses. A little goes a long way, so measure it into the pan gradually and adjust to suit the amount of fish and rice you are cooking. It suits both everyday fish biryani and a more considered dinner, depending on how much time you have to let the dish steam through properly.
