3. Grind together the ingredients mentioned for the green paste using a very tiny quantity of water, if required.
4. Mix the ingredients mentioned for marinade and add to it the drained chicken pieces. Mix well and set aside for about 1-2 hours.
5. The chicken can be marinated and refrigerated overnight. But in this case, the green paste, tomatoes and the birista should be added only an hour before cooking.
6. Wash and soak the basmati rice in clean water for about half an hour.
7. Heat 2 ltrs of water for cooking the rice. Add to it the whole spices mentioned and the salt.

9. Keeping the flame high, stir with a ladle. Add the lemon juice to it.
10. When the water starts boiling again, reduce the flame to medium, such that there is a slight boil to the water.
11. Keep checking the rice, but do not stir much. When the grains are half cooked, drain rice and set aside.
12. To cook the chicken, heat oil in a saucepan and add the whole spices to it. As soon as they splutter, add the ginger garlic paste and saute.
13. Add the chicken pieces alongwith the marinade. Keeping the flame high, keep stirring constantly till it reaches a boiling point.
14. Cook covered stirring occasionally. When the chicken is almost cooked, uncover and cook on high flame.
15. Cut the boiled potatoes into half and make vertical insicions on the boiled eggs. Add to the gravy and mix.
16. The mixture will gradually release some oil and will thicken up a bit. Add the cream and mix.
17. At this stage switch off the flame and set the chicken aside.
18. Keep a thick griddle on the gas stove and start heating it on low flame for the dum.
19. In the meantime, start layering the rice and chicken in a thick bottomed pan.
20. Spread some gravy at the bottom of the pan. Layer it with about half the cooked rice.
21. Spread some birista over it and some homemade ghee too.
22. Now, spread the cooked chicken mixture along with the pieces, potatoes and eggs over the rice.
23. Reserve a small quantity of the gravy for the topmost layer.
24. Spread the remaining rice over the chicken mixture and give it a slight press.
25. Spread some homemade ghee on this layer and then the reserved gravy. Sprinkle the remaining birista on top.
26. Cover with a foil and close the lid tightly over the pan. If desired place some weight over the lid.
27. Place this pan on the hot griddle and increase the flame to high.
28. Cook the biryani on dum on high flame for about 5 minutes and then on low flame for about 10 minutes.
29. While serving, scoop out the biryani from the sides so that all the layers can be served. Else, just give it a light mix and serve.
