5. 5

   Next, add the tomato, raisins, rice, stock and a pinch of salt, and simmer with the lid on for 25 minutes or until the rice is cooked. Stir occasionally to ensure the biryani doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.

   
6. 6

   Take the saucepan off the heat but leave the lid on for 5 minutes so the rice becomes light and fluffy then stir in the mint and coriander.
