Haleem

Haleem is basically a Arabic dish. You get haleem in Hyderabad which i have tried and it is different from what given below. I learnt this recipe from my Pakistani friend. 

You Need:

Boneless Chicken 3/4 kg
Shan Haleem Masala (It contains, 2 packets inside the box; one is the spice mix, and the other is the lentil/grain/pulses mix)
Onions - 2 nos
Green Chillis - 2 nos
Ghee/Oil - For cooking




Take a non stick pan, add ghee/oil. Add the chicken pieces and the spice powder ( 1/2 packet). Add 1/2 cup water and cook till the chicken is cooked and all the masala is well coated. You can also use pressure cook for 4-5 whistles. Use boneless and skinless chicken breasts for authentic results. Shred the chicken with your hands or using mixer. Make sure you don't grind the chicken.

Take a another non stick pan, add the shredded chicken , half packet of pulse powder, lots of water and cook for about 1 to 2 hrs or till you get the consistency as shown in the pic. The pulses should have cooked fully and blended well with the chicken.

Mean while fry the onions in oil. Chop and add the green chilli's and the fried onions to the haleem before you serve.

This tastes best with roti and even delicious when had as it is. You can also try with meat. 

With little patience, you cook yummy food and delight your loved ones.
