Prepare Biryani spice mix. - (see recipe)
Marinate the chicken with salt, yogurt, ginger garlic paste, red chilli powder, fried onions, black pepper powder, biryani spice mix, kewra water and mitha ator at least for 2 hours. If possible overnight, it gives better result.
Peel off the potatoes apply salt, pinch of food colour and fry them in medium heat for 2 mins each side.
Apply a pinch of salt and fry the boiled eggs for a minute on low heat, keep aside.
Wash the rice thoroughly and soak in water for at least 40 mins. (I have used Kohinoor extra long basmati rice.)
Pressure cook the chicken and the fried potatoes 2 whistles on medium heat.
Meanwhile prepare a spice bag with the spices mentioned in section, For the rice using a cheese cloth. - - Add the spice bag in the water, 2.5 kg and bring it to boil.
Prepare for layering for cooking on slow flame (dum cooking). - Need an aluminium vessel for dum cook which can hold all the rice, chicken, potatoes and eggs.
Keep an eye on the rice once its 90% cooked switch off the flame and strain it.
Brush ghee+ butter mixture inside the vessel. Cover the bottom of the vessel with bay leaves. - - Place all the chicken pieces, potatoes, the chicken gravy, 1tspn biryani spice mix, lime juice and 1 tbspn ghee+ butter mix. - - On top of this add 60% of the rice. Spread the milk + saffron + food colour mix. Add 2 tbspn ghee + butter mix.
Add rest of the rice, put the eggs, spread fried onions, and the ghee+ butter mix mind the sides. Then pour the milk + kewra water + mitha ator mix (the aromatics).
Seal it with aluminium foil properly, so that the flavors are sealed.
Slow cook for 30 to 35 mins on lowest possible heat then turn off flame and let it sit for another 30 mins.
