## Instructions

1. Finely dice an onion and grate a carrot.

3. Add the aromatics (cinnamon, bay leaves, cardamom pods, cloves, star anise).
4. Add the spices (black pepper, garlic powder, ginger powder, paprika, chili powder, coriander powder, nutmeg powder, cinnamon powder, cardamom powder, cumin powder, turmeric, black lumi powder).
5. Add 2 tablespoons of tomato puree and a chicken stock cube.
6. Add a pinch of salt and toast everything for a couple of minutes.
7. Add the halved chicken.
8. Add 2 cups of water and the zest of two oranges.
9. Let the pot boil for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
10. Place the chicken on a baking tray, brush it with some of the stock, and broil it in the oven for a nice color.
11. Wash and soak 2 cups of basmati rice in warm water for about 30 minutes.
12. To make the daqoos, blend tomatoes, onion, chilies (or bell pepper), peeled lemon, garlic, fresh mint, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt into a chunky consistency.
13. Once the rice has doubled in size, add it to the pot with 2 cups of water (or about a centimeter above the rice).
14. Add the zest of another orange, let it boil for about 6-7 minutes, and then drop the heat to the lowest possible.
15. Cover and let it cook for 20 minutes.  If you want it to fluff up even more, keep the lid shut for another 20 minutes.
16. Drop the rice on a serving plate and fluff it up a bit. Lay the chicken halves on their bed.
17. Garnish with optional nuts fried in authentic ghee and serve it with the daqoos.
