Seeing that it's been a while since I actually made something special for the blog, I requested Amma to think of a new variety in chicken when she was planning the menu for her party. She said she can't think of anything new, nor want to take a risk of making something new of which she has no verdict as it's going to be a party.
Then she decided to call in one of our guests, Vasantha Aunty, who is quite an expert in making Non veg dishes. She came in early and decided to make Chicken in the style she makes. By then Amma had all the other dishes set and done. She said this chicken gravy goes very well with just plain rice as it's quite spicy with pepper flavour being more.
The main specility of this gravy is the fact that it's made without Coconut. So if you are looking for a low calorie Chicken Gravy, then this is something that will suit just fine. I was asking her how she will get more gravy when she hasn't added coconut to it, she asked me to wait and watch. And I must agree the gravy was more and I guess people didn't miss out the coconut at all.
