- Desolve sugar in 1/2 cup water, add peel and boil gently for 5 minutes or until syrup is thick. Set aside.

- Spread remaining rice on top, pour on remainder of chicken liquid evenly.
- Cover casserole and cook in oven for 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile steep pounded saffron threads in hot water. (An Arab coffee cup is the perfect size for this).

Top with chicken pieces and garnish with reserved almonds. Pour saffron liquid over the rice boarder and serve immediately with yogurt.
