    I am back with my favorite post of all, an Indian Thali. This is something I cooked over the weekend for my Sil and it was really such a pleasure treating them all these family favorites. There is something about these thalis that makes it very close to my liking. When we visited them to bring back the kids, we stayed over the weekend.And naturally everybody comes down and it becomes a huge crowd. When Sil was wondering what to make for the lunch, I offered to make the biryani as I was getting bored doing nothing. I then offered to make the recent chicken fry that Amma has been making at home. Hubby dear said it comes out really good and I had asked for the recipe. I was waiting to make it at home. I thought it would be great to make that for a bigger crowd as well.

    As always at sil's place, each of us visit the kitchen in various time and get the dishes going. So I ended up making both the Nawabi Biryani, Mutton Gravy and Green Chili dal were made by my elder sil and the Liver fry by my BIL. Well that's another story for another day.

    I was happy that I had an event weekend cooking. Do check out what Vaishali and Champa did over the weekend!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Spicy Chicken Fry

    Ingredients Needed:

    For the chicken

    Chicken - 1/2 kg
    Salt - 1/2 tsp
    Turmeric powder a pinch
    Ginger Garlic paste - 1/2 tsp

    For the Masala powder

    Coriander Seeds -1  tsp
    Whole pepper - 1 tsp
    Cumin Seeds - 1 tsp
    Poppy Seeds - 1 tsp

    Dry roast all the spices and powder it semi coarse powder.

    For the Fry

    Oil - 1 tsp
    Fennel Seeds - 1/2 tsp
    Onions - 1 medium
    Ginger Garlic paste - 1/2 tsp
    Tomatoes - 1 medium
    Green Chilies - 2 medium
    Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
    Red chili powder - 1 tsp
    Salt to taste

    How to make the Fry

    Wash and cut chicken into small pieces. Pressure cook for one whistle along with salt, turmeric, ginger garlic paste without adding water. Let the pressure fall down.

    In a kadai, heat oil, add fennel seeds, then add onions. Saute till it turns colour. Then add ginger garlic paste and continue sauteeing till the smell leaves.

    Now add to the tomatoes, red chili powder, coriander powder, remaining salt, cover.

    Once the tomatoes turn soft, add only the chicken pieces and saute in sim for 5 mins. Now add the water and bring to boil. Transfer to the pressure cooker and cook for couple of whistles.

    Once the pressure falls, add the ground masala powder, continue cooking till the water evaporates and coats the chicken pieces.

    When the chicken is almost dry, switch off the gas.

    Serve with rice or chapati.

     
    Notes:

    Take care about the salt as you add it in two places.

    Same goes for spice, I add green chilies, you can avoid if you want.

    There is no need to add water for boiling chicken in PC, the water that comes out of chicken is enough for it to be cooked.

    The resultant dish is almost dry, with masala coating the pieces.

    Since it's semi gravy types you can simply serve with chapatis as well
