A speciality of the Kerala region in India.. When you start frying itself kids will come asking for it.. Its that good.. You can convert a pure vegetarian by giving them this dish..

Preparation time : 15 mts

Cooking time : 20 mts

Serves : 1 🙂

Ingredients for frying :

  • Chicken – 500 g
  • Chilli powder (Kashmiri) – 2 tsp (you can use smoked paprika 1 tsp)
  • Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp
  • Coriander powder – 2 tsp
  • Garam masala – 1 tsp (you can replace it with Chinese all spice powder )
  • Ground black pepper – 1/2 tsp
  • Salt – 1/2 tsp
  • Water – 3 tablespoon
  • Oil – 4 tablespoon (preferably coconut oil or any non flavoured oil)

Mix everything except oil and rub it on the chicken pieces and keep it in a closed container for atleast 1/2 an hour. If you’re keeping it longer keep it in the fridge. You can marinate and keep in fridge overnight. Remember to bring it room temperature before frying.

Other ingredients:

  • Red onions – 3 (medium size, diced)
  • Garlic cloves – 5 (big,sliced) Here I’ve used small Indian garlic 1 whole)
  • Ginger – 1′ sliced
  • Curry leaves – one handful (the chicken really need that much curry leaves to get the strong flavour 🙂 )

Method :

  1. In a frying pan add oil and allow it to get heated.
  2. When the oil is hot spread the marinated chicken pieces one by one and cover it with a lid and cook for 10 mts at medium heat.
  3. Once the chicken is cooked open the lid and allow the chicken get brown on both sides.
  4. When the chicken is fried take it out of the pan and add all other ingredients in the same oil and fry.
  5. When the onions are soft and almost brown add back the fried chicken and mix it well.
  6. Close the pan with the lid once again and cook it for 2 more minutes in low flame.
  7. Kerala chicken fry is ready to serve !
