We have a very similar Odia chicken curry with same ingredients with the major difference being the order in which we add the spices and sans the coconut. Adding the spices even in a slightly different order does make a huge difference 🙂

Anon Thanks for leaving your comment, wish you had left a name..:)
Glad to know that you have tried and liked the recipes.
Coming to this recipe, it's mostly fresh coconut. But as you know we can use Copra also. In this recipe you see, we used fresh coconut. Do try with fresh, then you can experiment with dry coconut as well..:)
Do let me know how it turns out.
