On a cold winter night, chicken curry and paratha is a hit in my home. Chicken is my all time favourite and I can cook and eat chicken at any time of day.

  • Veg Oil for frying about 3-4 tbsp
  • A knob of butter
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 Caps of normal Vinegar about 2 tsp
  • 1 tsp of dried rosemary herbs
  • 1 inch cinnamon stick
  • 1 Pinch of cumin seeds
  • 2 tsp of cumin powder
  • 2 tsp of coriander powder
  • 2 tbsp of sugar
  • 1/2 tsp of freshly grounded pepper

  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder for marinating
  • Water 1 to 1/2 cup depends on the desired gravy

Directions

  1. Marinating the Chicken
  2. Apply turmeric powder and salt to the chicken. Rub well and keep it aside. 5-10 minutes will do just fine.
  3. Directions
  4. Heat the oil in the pot. Drop in the butter. Add the dried rosemary, cinnamon and cumin seeds to it. Quickly add the ginger and garlic to it. Keep on low flame so that the garlic does not burn.
  5. Add the green chillies and chopped onions to the pot. Stir well.
  6. Add the salt to the pot and give it a good mix. Go slow on the salt as we have marinated the chicken with salt already. The salt here will help us in cooking the onions much faster.
  7. Cover the pot and stir in between for 2 minutes.
  8. Tuck in the chicken pieces and mix it well with the onions and garlic and again cover.
  9. Now, add the sugar, pepper, and the cumin and coriander powder. Mix well.
  10. Add the can of chopped tomatoes to the pot and give it a good mix.
  11. Pour in the lemon juice and vinegar. Check and adjust the seasoning.
  12. Mix everything well and pour the water, cover and let it simmers for another 5 minutes or so.
  13. Since it’s a baby chicken it will be cooked in few minutes. And it will be Sweet and sour, tangy in taste. Garnish it with finely chopped parsley and serve with rice, chapattis, paratha...your wish :).
  14. Happy Cooking!!!
