Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Take a deep pan(same one in which u goin to make the curry)dry roast the coriander seeds, grind/crush them in a mortar and pestle and keep it aside.

  2. 2

    Pour oil - (generously say 1/2cup as you dont add any water and the chicken gets cooked in it.) Add the fenugreek seeds and then the dried red chillies.

  3. 3

    Then add the onions, garlic, salt to taste and saute it well.

  4. 4

    When the onion has become transparent and soft, add the turmeric powder, red chilli powder andd garam masala. Saute well and add the dry roasted coriander powder.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, boil the tomatoes, remove the skin and puree it in a blender.

  6. 6

    Once the raw taste of the powders are gone, add the cut chicken, capsicum,mix well and cook with lid on. (high flame 5 minutes, then low flame). You may add water if you want. But as the chicken gets cooked the curry will have enough water by itself.

  7. 7

    Once the chicken is almost cooked, add the tomato puree, mix well and let it cook another 10 minutes.

  8. 8

    Finally, add the kasuri methi, julienned chillies and ginger. Mix well and let it rest for a while.

  9. 9

    Serve with freshly chopped coriander leaves and dollops of butter. Best with ghee/jeera rice and chappatis as well.
