Dieses außergewöhnliche Gericht wird zu speziellen Anlässen in Pakistan und Nord-Indien gegessen. Seht, wie es mit frischen Kräutern zubereitet und anschließend im Ofen gebacken wird.

Diese außergewöhnliche Speise hat nichts mit dem indischen "Risotto" zu tun, das man manchmal in Restaurants im Westen isst. Es muss lange kochen, aber wenn man den Anweisungen auf dieser Seite folgt ist der Erfolg garantiert. 

 

Lamm-Pilaw
800 Gramm Lamm (Schulter) 

2 Tassen Basmati-Reis

6 Tassen kleingehackter Zwiebeln

400 Gramm geschälte Tomaten

100 Gramm Sultaninen

4 Knoblauchzehen

1 Ingwerwurzel

6 grüne Kardamomhülsen (oder 3 schwarze)

20 schwarze Pfefferkörner

1 Lorbeerblatt

1 Zimtstange

Meersalz

1 Prise Muskatblüte

1 Prise geriebene Muskatnuss

2 EL Koriandersamen

2 EL ganze Kreuzkümmelsamen

gemahlene Gelbwurz

5 Nelken

2-4 getrocknete Chilischoten

2 Tassen Wasser

 

Wir werden die Gewürze wie oben im Uhrzeigersinn verwenden: ein Löffel gemahlene Gelbwurz, schwarze Pfefferkörner, Koriander, Kreuzkümmelsamen, grüner Kardamom, Nelken, Lorbeerblätter, Serrano-Chilischoten und in der Mitte von unten nach oben: Meersalz, Muskatnuss und Zimt.

Gewürze kosten heutzutage so gut wie gar nichts und auch wenn man sie nicht ewig aufbewahren kann (wie es meine Mutter macht), ist beispielsweise 'alter' Kardamom immer noch um Längen besser als überhaupt kein Kardamom. Und bitte niemals bereits gemahlene Gewürze kaufen - nach zwei Wochen schmecken die wie Sagespäne und ihr werdet sie nicht richtig genießen können.

 

Für dieses Gericht benötigen wir den allerbesten Basmati-Reis. Man sollte keine Scheu haben, zu einem indischen Laden zu gehen, um ihn zu besorgen - oder ihn online bestellen. Auf dem Bild seht ihr den Sack mit meinem allerbesten Basmati. Bitte zwei Tassen in ein Sieb geben.

Der erste Schritt ist sehr wichtig - man muss den Reis mehrmals waschen, danach sollte man ihn ein bis zwei Stunden lang in einem Topf mit Wasser liegen lassen. Wer diesen Vorgang überspringt, muss in Kauf nehmen, dass der Reis nicht richtig durchgekocht wird.

 

 

Das Fleisch mit einem Papiertuch trocknen und am besten die fettigen weißen Stücke aus dem Fleisch herausschneiden. Dann das Fleisch in etwa daumenbreite Fleischwürfel schneiden.

 

Mit Salz und Pfeffer würzen. Dann das Fleisch in eine Plastikfolie wickeln und das Fleisch erstmal so lassen während man weiter vorbereitet.

 

Den Ingwer, die Zwiebeln und den Knoblauch aus dem Kühlschrank nehmen.

 

Schälen, danach die Zwiebeln so dünn wie möglich schneiden. Den Knoblauch pressen und den Ingwer reiben bis man etwa gleichviel von beidem hat. 

 

Einen Neuzugang zur FXCuisine nutzend, reduziere ich die Pfefferkörner, den Kümmel, den Koriander, die Muskatblüten und -nüsse und die entsamten und entstielten Chilischoten zu einem viel feieren Pulver, als dass ich jemals mit einem Mörser hätte machen können.

 

Etwas Ghee oder Öl in einem Anheizherd erhitzen.

 

Jetzt die großen geruchsintensiven Gewürze hinzufügen: Kardamom, Zimt, Nelken und das Lorbeerblatt. So lange anbraten bis alles leicht braun wird. Man sollte sie nicht anbrennen lassen, die Lorbeerblätter sollten sich dennoch verfärben. Dieser Vorgang hebt den Geschmack der Gewürze, etwa, wie wenn man rohen Sesamsamen erhitzt.

Das Ingwer-Knoblauch-Püree hinzufügen und noch etwas weiter erhitzen, etwa drei Minuten oder bis sich die Mischung verfärbt. 

 

Zwiebeln hinzufügen und auf mittlerer Hitze kochen lassen, bis die Zwiebeln weich sind.

 

 

Die gemahlenen Gewürze hinzugeben, einmischen und weitere zwei Minuten kochen lassen.


Das Lammfleisch hinzugeben und so lange kochen lassen bis es sich auf allen Seiten verfärbt hat, während man ständig mischt und umrührt. 

 

Tomaten, Salz und Gelbwurz hinzufügen...

 

...danach zwei Tassen Wasser. Stark aufkochen lassen.

 

Den eingeweichten Reis abgießen und in den Topf schütten.

 

Gut durchmischen. Den Ofen auf 165°C hochdrehen.

 

Nun nehme man ein großes Stück Aluminiumfolie, faltet es viermal und sorgt dafür, dass es den Topf so gut wie möglich abdichtet. Jetzt im Ofen 40 Minuten lang kochen lassen. Man sollte nicht versuchen, einen Blick zu erhaschen! Wer aber nicht anders kann, soll es weiterhin auf dem Herd auf kleiner Flamme köcheln lassen.

 

Das hier ist das Gericht nach 40 Minuten, sehr wohlriechend, der Reis nun ein faszinierender Haufen kleiner, weißer Stäbchen.

Am besten kann man das Gericht als Hauptgang mit Gurkenraita servieren.

Man kann das Gesamtwerk noch anreichern mit geschmolzener Butter oder Ghee und gebratenen Mandeln und gehackten Korianderblätter. 

Ich habe dieses Rezept aus dem Buch  Mangoes & Curry Leaves, das beste indische Kochbuch, das ich jemals auf Englisch gesehen habe, Gewinner des Beard-Cookbook-Awards.

Allen Liebhabern der indischen Küche wärmstens zu empfehlen!

How much water are you using?
  • #2
  • Von: saima
I used 3 cups of water for 2 cups of rice. It turned out great!..just needed a bit more salt. Maybe I'll use 2-3 tea spoons next time (only had the ground).

Pakistanese??? Reminds me of that old Indo-Anglian joke - Never call a Goan a Goanese - he'll ask you to go and ease yourself.

Hye... your briyani looks so delicious... I thought of trying it this weekend... but is it 800kg or 800gram for the meat?...800kg is a bit too much rite. =)and can you tell me what is curcuma?... is it turmeric powder? And if i am using the normal stove, should I put it in high, medium or low flame when the dutch oven is left for 40 minutes? Thanks!

Iera, thank you for your comment. I have corrected the typos. Indeed it is 800 grams/ 1.5 lbs lamb and not 800 kg. Curcuma is French for Turmeric as you rightly point out. I changed this too. You can cook this on a stovepot on very low heat. In the subcontinent they would bury it in ashes but this is disappearing.

Very authentic and beautifully presented, but as parshu pointed out, there's no such thing as "Pakistanese" - it's "Pakistani".

Thank you Penny Lane, I apologize for that gross mistake, the title is now 'Pakistani Lamb Pulao'. French is my mother tongue, I hope it doesn't show too much in my writing!

I've said it before, my firangi (frankish) friend, your English and your writing style are excellent, esp. for someone's 2nd or 3rd language - it's my 3rd language too after Tamil and Hindi, I know. it's also a good rebuttal to the popular tourist belief that French speakers detest English.

Hi,  What I would like to know is that after cooking the "Biryani", does it appear to be sticky or are the rice grains seperated? Coz this is how I would like to be:) I know some people who like sticky pulao and biryani. Would using only 2 cups of water cook the lamb properly? Here it appears stunning....thanks for the recipe !

What a great dish... Had to substitute some on-hand pork tenderloin for the lamb.  Where/when do the sultanas go in? And are they the grape or raisins?  Also used about 1tsp of Turmeric (not sure how much the recipe actually called for).  Next time may throw in some root veggies before the oven for a little more hardiness.
Great site and great recipes. Just yesterday, for the first time I tried this PLP, and was a real success, thanks to you, it came just as in the picture, and with the same, I think, wonderful taste.I like, as italian, make fine italian traditional dishes, but it's a short time I am trying some "exotic", as I like a lot indian cooking, and your site is the one I like over all.Everyday I give a look here, and from now on I am gonna try other recipes of yours.one question about the pak.lamb: when you add the sultanas? I read it in the list, but they are lost in the way.I added after the tomato, but i am not sure about this action.Hope to read you soon, thanks again

Luciano, grazie per la tua visita! Ti rispondo in Inglese di modo che tutti possiano capire:
The sultanas need to be added with the liquid, ideally you should soak them in some water before starting so that they won't deprive the rice of its water. I think the Italians and the Silk Road countries make the very best rice dishes in the world, and you will find exploring those pulaos, byrianis and plovs very rewarding! Try to use whole spices that did not wait for you during 5 years on the shop's shelves and you'll be fine. Good luck!

Together with your raita, this is the best dish I have found on the internet. The fragrance of the finished dish is indescribable. I garnished it with chopped panfried almonds and cilantro like you recommended. I can't emphasise enough how much this dish relies on fresh, whole spices; the intoxicating mixture of cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, coriander, cumin, etc. is really what puts this dish over the top.

I used a whole lamb shoulder which I cut into chunks. I left the shoulderblade in with some meat still on it, and I'm glad I did. All the other bones (and now the blade as well) are reducing to stock on the stove. This dish will keep on giving, even after the leftovers are gone.

Neal, if you like this type of rice you must absolutely try the Persian Jeweled Rice. Fragrant pulaos have been developed by Indian chefs after one of their rulers came back from exile in Persia in the 16th century, but the original Persian dishes are well worth checking out! Sweeter and less spicy, but in my opinion even more spectacular.

You put meat too earlier. It should fry, not sautee. And it can fry only when the onion lost almost all of it moisture.
In your case it didn't fry.

This is a great site with fantastic step by step photos which are a joy in themselves!

I am actually researching a good recipe for Kazakhstan Plov, which I was once served by a Kazakh friend. His recipe had a (half) leg of lamb embedded in a saffron-flavoured rice with apricots. There were other spices too, including a secret concoction that came in a jar from Georgia (I forget the name but I think it may contain tamarind). The lamb was carved from the bone after cooking and served over the bed of rice which had deliciously absorbed all the lamb juices. The lamb, on the other hand, had absorbed some of the spices at the surface but had retained its individuality. I think that the bone marrow had also added to the flavour.

In the course of this research I am becoming very interested in the various methods of preparing pilaf/pilau/pulao/plov/polov ... (whatever the name in various countries). The intricacies and hotly contested methods of preparation are fascinating!

I have, naturally, bookmarked your site!

Andrew, thanks for visiting! There are many of these rices dishes all over the Silk Road, but the most sophisticated, methinks, are the Persian ones. Check my Persian Jewelled Rice article to see an example, I think you will like it.

This is a very good recipe. Few things are done differently in Pakistan and it may be a matter of personal taste.
Instead of boneless Lamb it is made with bone-in or boneless goat meat which gives it more taste IMO.
Also, I would suggest this sequence

Add onions and cook over medium heat until onions are golden brown in color.
Add salt and turmeric  
Add the meat and cook on low/med heat until it releases oil. (This is important)
Add tomatoes and cook for 5 mins
Add ground spices, mix, and cook for a further 5 minutes.  
.......
.......

Your website is wonderful, keep up the great work!

Mir, thanks a lot for your visit and tips! The lamb with bone-in looks like a great idea.

Thanks for your amazing website. I tried this recipe with excellent results; I've also noticed a considerable improvement in the quality of my curries lately, thanks to the techniques demonstrated in your article.

Your site is a cut above any other food blog I've read - you're a great storyteller as well as a fantastic cook. Hope to keep reading here for a long time to come!

Aggghhhhh-- I'm in heaven. For over 10 years I have been looking for a recipe that produced this combination of delicious, complex, aromatic flavors. Thank you, thank you, thank you- I LOVED this recipe- served it with the Raita and Dal. Can't wait to explore your site some more-- Carole
  • FX's answer→ Great! It is a fantastic dish indeed.

wonderful:)  just a quick 'paranoid' question - i want to cook it with beef, and it takes me a good 30 mins to cook beef in a pressure cooker...will it be safe to 'just fry' the beef on the stove, before i put the entire dish in the oven to cook - will the beef be cooked through?  i dont want the meat to be raw when i serve...
i would really appreciate your timely reply please!
also, i am going to be using basmati rice - will the ratio of rice to water being 1:1.5 be ok?
thx again!
