Steps

40-45 minutes

1

Soak almonds in milk. Blend it to make a smooth paste. Add this and all the other ingredients mentioned to the washed and cleaned chicken pieces. Let this marinade seep into the chicken to give it that succulent texture. Keep aside for a good 3-4 hours or better still overnight. Marinate it in the special vessel called Lagan in Hyderabad. Since it's a slow cooked dish, the name is Hyderabadi Dum Ka Murgh.
2

After 3 hours, place this vessel or lagan on the heat. Keep it on a low heat at first for nearly 10 minutes. Cover it without fail. After 10 minutes, you can just give it a gentle mix taking care not to break the chicken pieces. Stir it lightly. Cover and cook again for 25 minutes or until done. Do not open the lid in between. After done, do not remove the lid immediately, give it a standing time of 10 minutes. Now open it and serve it piping hot immediately.
3

It goes well with charkoni naans available all over Hyderabad. Charkoni means square shaped in Urdu. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander and mint leaves. It can also be served alongside Hyderabadi Baghara Khaana, Parathas, Chapatis, Pulaos etc. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
