For preparing the rice, boil water in a large pan. In another pan, heat oil. Add onions and sauté until the onions turns soft. At this stage add cardamom, cloves, bay leaves, cinnamon and cumin seeds and sauté for a couple of minutes until the aroma of the spices starts coming out. Add boiling water, lemon juice and salt to this. When the water starts bubbling, put the rice slowly and cook. Cook it covered until all the rice is cooked evenly.
For layering the biryani, divide the rice in 2 parts. Put some oil or ghee in the base. Layer the bottom of the vessel with the first part of the rice. Sprinkle a 1/4 tsp of garam masala all over and pour prawn masala all over the rice. Tip in the second part of rice and sprinkle a good pinch of garam masala all over again. Cover the entire vessel with foil, and then close the lid tightly. Place a weight over this vessel and simmer on very low heat. Serve with coconut chutney and yogurt.
