The homemade biryani masala powder recipe is an authentic and flavorful blend of spices, which enhances the taste of biryani. This biryani masala is prepared by grinding the roasted whole spices containing bay leaf, green cardamom, coriander seeds, shahi jeera, cinnamon, cloves, black cardamom, pepper, fennel seeds and star anise.
Measure all the ingredients. In below picture I missed cardamom and star anise. Adding all the mentioned whole spices gives the perfect flavorful masala.
Heat the pan and add bay leaf and cinnamon to it. Dry roast it until the bay leaf becomes crisp. It takes around 4-5 minutes on medium flame.
Keep it aside. Now, add green cardamom, coriander seeds, shahi jeera, cloves, cardamom, black pepper, fennel seeds, star anise to the pan. Dry roast it for 7-8 minutes.
Transfer it to a plate and let it cool completely. Then add all the roasted spices to a grinder jar also and 1 tablespoon of Kashmiri red chili powder and grind it into a fine powder.
Transfer the ground homemade biryani masala to an air-tight container. And use it as per requirement. We can store it for a couple of months.
