I made this a few weeks ago for one of our weekend meal. I used the Shan brand briyani but I didn't follow the instruction. Instead, I cook the rice using a recipe that I have but the meat gravy I used the one in the package 8-)
The rice is fairly simple to make and tastes real nice. But the colouring isn't so great because I was still pretty new with this.
Ingredients
1kg basmati rice, soaked for 30 minutes and drained
2-3 tsp ghee/butter
1 star anise
2 sticks cinnamon
4 cardamoms
2 stalks lemongrass, bruised
5 pandan leaves, tear the middle and tie into a knot
1/4 cup yoghurt
3 cups evaporated milk
3 cups water
salt
some saffron or use colouring
some toasted almond slivers or cashew nuts + raisins fried in ghee/butter for garnishing
Method
1. Heat ghee, fry the spices till fragrant
2. Add the rice and stir fry for about 2 minutes
3. Transfer everything to the rice cooker
4. Add lemongrass, yoghurt, water, evaporated milk, salt and pandan leaves and stir the mixture
5. Switch on rice cooker and cook
6. Once cooked, sprinkle saffron or colouring to the rice and mix gently
7. Sprinkle toasted nuts and fried raisins and serve

Looks super duper delicious!!!!!!!
Which one tastes better? This nasi biryani or the pilau biryani you made before?
Hi anonymous
For pilau briyani it's a premix. I find that this briyani is good enough and can even be used for layered briyani.

Hi loneranger,
You boleh pakai colouring oren tapi lebih baik yg powder form kalau ade. Kalau pakai powder, kena pakai lidi, celup sikit lepas tu dip lidi dlm nasi. kalau liquid a few drops lepas tu fluff the rice.
