Chicken Curry


This version of chicken curry is a simple yet tasty recipe. Thanks Suma for sharing it with all of us.


Ingredients:

For grinding:
 Copra or dry coconut -2 big spoons (don't add too much as it gives thickness)
 4 garlic cloves
1/4 inch ginger
2 cloves
 1/2 cup coriander leaves.

Grind and keep aside.

For frying:
3-4 tsp cooking oil.
1 chopped onion
1 chopped tomato
150g chicken cleaned and cut into required size
1 tsp red chilly powder
1 tsp coriander(dhaniya) powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1/2 cup coriander leaves to garnish

How to make:

 Heat oil in a kadai or cooking pan. Add one chopped onion and fry till pink. Add one chopped tomato and 150 grams chicken. Fry. Close the lid of the pan. Do not add water as it would already have enough water. Now, add red chilli powder, dhaniya powder and turmeric powder. Cook for sometime. Then, mix the ground masala. If you want gravy, add some more water, or else,  wait for all the water to evaporate and then add coarsely grounded pepper. Garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve with hot chapatis or rotis.
