Instructions to make Maklouebah (upsidedown veggie/rice/chicken pot):
- First you want to soak your basmati rice in some water with a pinch of saffron for 10-15 mins. And cook it in a pot how you normally like your rice.
- Cut the chicken into square shaped slices and boil in some hot water with some salt. 5-7minutes.
- Now you want to get a medium pan ready with some canola or vegetable oil for frying your veggies. Its much better to slice your vegetables in a thick round form as it makes it easier to stack so when you turn the pot over it holds toegther nicely.
- Theres a specific order when it comes to frying your vegetables because the potatoes need to cook longer and take up more oil.
- Check your rice and see if its done cooking. And stir/turn it around with a spoon.
- So first start by frying your potatoe slices until golden, - then the bell peppers - Carrots - Eggplant - by this time there should be some oil left and thats when you add the tomatoe slices and fry them.
- Once you finished frying your vegetables saute the round onion slices with the sliced boil chicken and biryani spice and some squeezed lemon juice.
- Okay now you want to get one large pot to fit in your fried vegetables and rice. Whichever vegetable you layer first is the one that will appear on top as we will flip the pot upsidedown.
- Now to layering your maklouebah - Start by placing the sliced chicken at the bottom then the - Tomato - Potaoe - Bell Pepper - Carrot - Eggplant - Onion - And finally scoop out the rice from its original pot and place it on top of your layered veggies and put it on the stove on low to medium heat for 10mins.
- After its done take the pot off the stove and get a large round tray and carefully place the tray on top of the pot. This is the hard part. The FLIP. You want to make sure you have a tight hold of the pot. Place one hand on the pot handle and the other above the tray and quickly flip the pot. And remove the pot and now you have maklouebah. Enjoy :)
Arrange the chicken on top of it and fill the gaps with rice. Add a layer of cauliflower, then top with the remaining rice. Season with the salt, ground allspice, ground cinnamon, and ground cardamom. Gently add enough of the chicken cooking liquid to submerge the rice and rise by ½- to ¾-inch. Remove the parchment, then invert a serving platter onto the pot.
