Why do I like this recipe
Chicken Chukka is one of my grandmother’s signature recipes. I still remember those days, where he used to grind the spices with his hands using a large stone mortar (AMMI Kal). He always said that the newly pounded spices taste better than powder made in mixie.
Thick spices and chicken flavors create recipes that are entertaining and satisfying. Even now, every time I make this recipe, I remember him. It brought back all the beautiful memories. In our family, we used to enjoy it with Dosai, Idli and Parotta.
Ingredients


Chicken : Bone-in Chicken is the best for the recipe, because they easily absorb the taste. But you can also choose boneless chicken.
Oil: For the best taste and taste, use peanut oil or gingelly oil. But also works with other oils such as vegetable oil, coconut oil.
Onion : Onions are the basis of Chukka and sauteed until golden brown. Caramel onions add a sweet taste.
Coriander leaves : Fresh coriander leaf is a flavoring agent from every southern Indian recipe. Add a handful of chopped coriander leaves for decoration.
Dry Masala: I have used all spices such as dry red chili, coriander seeds, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, cumin seeds to make a mixture of dry spices. Along with this Kashmir chili powder is added to the color. This fresh spice adds to the aroma to Chukka. You can also replace it with masala salt powder or chicken powder shop that is purchased.
Masala Wet: Grinding fresh coriander leaves, green chili and ginger garlic paste by adding a little water to the paste. This pasta gives a warm, modest, and spicy taste that blends very well with chicken. Adjust or get rid of chili if you prefer lighter.


My personal tips
Cleaning: Wash and clean the chicken with turmeric powder, lemon juice, and salt. This will help eliminate the smell of meat.
Dry Bake: In a pan, add dry spices such as red chili, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, cinnamon, cloves, grilled cardamom over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Don’t be browned. Cool and make it into powder.
Want a sauce? Use coconut paste or cashews to add the body to Chukka. This will also balance the spice taste and add a lightweight sweet taste.
Rural taste: Cook the chicken with spices in traditional Iron Kawadan along with gingelly oil. Masalas will stick to the pan, then scratch and mix it again and will increase the taste and produce a rural taste.
