3. Cut 3 onions into thin slices for barista.
4. Heat 2 cups of cooking oil in a broad pan and deep fry onions into light golden brown. Transfer to a kitchen towel.
5. Clean and prick the potatoes and boil them in water. I microwaved them for 8 minutes.
6. Peel and cut each potato into 4 halves.

8. Transfer to a dish.

15. Again mix well, add 1 cup of water, cover and cook in medium heat for about 20 minutes or until chicken cooks.
16. In the mean time clean and soak 2 kg of long grain basmati rice for atleast 1/2 an hour.
17. Also soak saffron in warm milk.
18. When chicken cooks completely remove from heat. Do not completely dry up the gravy.
