It is dry chicken preparation coated with red masala
Well, I have started cooking again after a span of 3 years. I earlier used to cook Tomato Puree Chutney, Rice, Sambar, Upma, Chicken Gravy. I came across Sanjeev Kapoor "Tasty Eating for Healthy Living" cook book which I bought from a book shop and ever since then wanted to try the recipe at home.
Big thanks to the master chef Sanjeev kapoor. I take a big inspiration from him for teaching us the ways of cooking and helping us to live a healthy life. Thank you very much sir.
FYI - I'm adding the recipe from his web links. I hope i'm not breaking any copy rights rules. If so, kindly let me know.
Recipe :
Ingredients
Chicken 1 Kilogram
Garlic 12 cloves
Whole dry red chillies 20
Cloves 4-5
Green Cardamoms 4
Cinnamon 2 inch stick
Turmeric Powder 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Mustard oil 2 tablespoons
Cumin Seeds 1 teaspoon
Yoghurt 1/2 cup
Fresh coriander leaves, Chopped 1/2 cup
Method
Grind together Garlic, Red Chillies, Cloves, Cardamom, Cinnamon and turmeric powder to a fine paste. Apply this paste and salt to the Chicken pieces and allow to marinate for two hours in the refrigerator.
Heat oil in a pressure cooker, add cumin seeds and when they begin to change color, add the marinated chicken pieces, and saute on high heat. When all the moisture has evaporated, add yoghurt with half a cup of water. Close the cooker and cook under pressure till two whistles are given out. Open the lid when the pressure has completely reduced. Adjust salt and stir-fry till the masala coats the chicken. Serve hot, sprinkled with coriander leaves.
