Mix the turmeric, chili powder, salt, ginger, garlic, onion, Garam masala and 1/2 cup yogurt and marinate the prawns in it, for 1/2 an hour
Cook rice with water until its 80% cooked
Drain the water and add 1 tsp cardamom powder,salt per taste to it
Mix well and set aside for layering
Now take a pan and heat 1 tbsp oil and add prawns and cook at medium flame for 5-7min
You will get a thick liquid gravy
Now it comes to layering
Take a handi or a biriyani pot
Grease the bottom with ghee
Take half rice and layer the bottom
Add second layer of half of the prawn on it
Sprinkle coarinder chopped and half of prawn gravy
Sprinkle half onion
Third layer is with the remaining rice and final layer is with remaining prawn gravy
Sprinkle fried onion, coriander and green chills on top
Sprinkle the milk
Now seal the pot with dough and put on dum on lowest heat of gas burner
You can always put a flat skillet or tawa first on gas flame and than put your biriyani pot on it for dum, so that there will be no-chance of burning inside
It will take 25-30 min till you get a nice aroma all around
To check whether cooking is done or not, sprinkle little water on the side wall of pot outside
If it's done than water will evaporate immediately
Serve hot
