Description

This Instant Pot Afghan Chicken Ghorma is delicious, quick, and a perfect cold-weather recipe.


Ingredients

Scale

1 Chicken (Whole, Cut Up)

2 Tablespoons Cooking Oil

1 Onion (Chopped)

3 Gloves of Garlic

1 Teaspoon Salt

1 Teaspoon Coriander

1 Teaspoon Cumin

1 Teaspoon Turmeric

1 Teaspoon Chili Pepper

2 Tomatoes (Grated)

2 Cups Basmati Rice

Boiled Water

Black Pepper

1 Teaspoon of Char Masala


Instructions

1. Break down your chicken, chop onions, and mince your garlic. Also, soak and rinse your 2 Cups of rice.

2. Next, set your Instant Pot to saute. Add your oil. Saute your onions until lightly browned. Then, add your garlic and cook for 45 seconds.

3. Next add your coriander, chili powder, cumin, turmeric, and salt.

4. Let your spices cook for a minute and then add your cut up chicken.

5. Take your two tomatoes and grate them with a cheese grater. This allows you to have crushed tomatoes with no skin. How cool, right?

6. Next, add your tomatoes. Let the chicken mixture cook and blend with your spice mix.

7. Now prepare your food for the pressure cooking. Take your boiling water and cover your chicken. You need enough water to make sure the chicken does not burn during the process. Take your trivet (watch video) and place it on top of the chicken. Then, take your bowl of rice (covered in water) and sit on top of the trivet that is on top of the chicken. Finally, add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of char masala to the rice. Cover and cook for 10 minutes on high pressure.

Notes

This recipe goes well with some Afghan naan, yogurt sauce, chutney, and a sheer chai afterward.
