well, can you? I just wondered cos I've planned a biryani for tomorrow(rubber chicken, can u tell we had chicken on Sunday)
failing that just some kind of rice/veg/chicken mix, would it work?

madhur jaffrey has a recipe, traditional biryani is cooked slowly over a low heat so it should be ideal. The (thoroughly rinsed) rice has to be cooked for just 5 minutes first.
Will post recipe later if you cant find it. Trouble is I make biryani without a recipe now, just do it automatically;)Member no.1 of the 'I'm not in a clique' group :rotfl:

very important thing to note
when cooking any kind of indian food in a slowcooker ONLY cook on low
high heat ruins the flavours something fierce but the low setting is great because it really allows the flavours to blend mmmmmmmmm
anyone got a good slowcooker korma recipe you can post, i'm in the mood now

I make a version of biryani but I am sure someone will be able to post a 'real' recipe!
I use my normal curry spices fried off in the pan with oil then bung into the SC with rice and a tin of tomatoes and extra water and then cooked chicken (this is usually a leftover tea for me!). Leave on low for about 6 hours - watch though because the rice soaks up loadsa liquid.
Not a fab recipe but I like it !!!The Best Things in Life Are Free0 -
anymore more recipes??????
thanks molly

It turned out too mushy
I think I would put it in a dish inside the SC dish next time. If My SC hadn't packed up Member no.1 of the 'I'm not in a clique' group :rotfl:
