Coorg chicken fry

Long time back I had posted coorg chicken .This time I adapted the recipe from zee Kannada cookery show.The main twist in the recipe is 'Kachampuli' paste  which is also known as Coorg vinegar  which is added  in the final stage but I could not arrange it  and I substituted it with our very own South Indian vinegar 'tamarind'.

Chicken -1  kg
Onions -3-4,sliced
Garlic - 5-6,crushed and chopped
Ginger - 1" ,crushed and chopped

Pepper powder -1/2 tsp
Tamarind paste - 1/2 tsp (original recipe calls for kachampuli)
Oil - 2-3 tbsp
Coriander leaves -2 tbsp,chopped
Curry leaves - 1 sprig



Method:
  1. Heat oil in a pan and saute onions until brown in colour
  2. Add  crushed and chopped ginger garlic  and saute for a minute.
  3. Add chicken,turmeric powder,salt to taste and cook  until 3/4th.
  4. In another pan,dry roast all powders until it changes it colour in low flame.
  5. Roasting of powders is done for the flavour and colour.
  6. Ensure that it doesn't burn.
  7. Add this roasted powder to the cooked chicken and mix it well.
