Cooking Method |
Step 1) to make curry leaf powder dry roast cinnamon , cardamom, cloves, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, pepper corns for 2 minutes on a medium heat and then add a handfull of curry leaves and again roast it for couple of more minutes.
Step 2) Transfer this to a blender and grind it to a fine powder (allow the mixture to cool and then grind)
Step 3) To make curry leaf chicken heat some oil add some chopped ginger and some chopped garlic (I prefer to use chopped one rather than ginger garlic paste) and some green chilies. After the raw smell is gone add turmeric powder , and a handfull of shallots
once the shallots are soft and golden add some curry leaves , coriander powder and the freshly ground curry leaf powder (from step 1) and mix it well .
Step 4) Then add the chicken pieces and mix it well with the masalas and cook until the chicken is fully done.(It takes around 7 minutes if your chicken pieces are small - medium sized)
Our Delicious Healthy and tasty Curry leaf chicken is ready to be served..Happy Cooking :)
Note:
- You can make this curry leaf powder and keep it handy and can be used along with rice too.
- Since I have already added 1 tbsp pepper corns while making the masala powder I have not added chili powder If you want it to be more spicy you can add some chili powder.
- I prefer to use boneless chicken breast for making curry leaves chicken ,However chicken with bones also taste good.
- For curry leaf chicken shallots adds more taste and flavor than Regular onions.
