Goan Chicken Fry

 A chicken fry is definitely not something to brag about. But trust me, this one is awesome. Unlike the usual chicken fry recipes, this special Goan fry uses cumin and tomato puree for its marination. And the outcome is simply out of this world. Trying out this recipe made me to take a new decision in my life- to try out more and more goan recipes. So fingers crossed for that. Anyway, first things first. Here you go...
Ingredients

chicken – 1 kg
kashmiri chilli powder – 2 ½ tsp
cumin seeds – 1 tsp
peppercorns – ½ tsp
mustard seeds – 1 tsp
cloves – 4
ginger – 4 cm
garlic – 1 pod
turmeric powder – 1 tsp
vinegar – 1 tbsp
tomato puree- 1 tsp
salt – to taste
oil – 5 tbsp
Method
Clean the chicken.
Grind all the ingredients from chilli powder to turmeric powder together with vinegar and tomato puree.
Add little water to a smooth paste.
Mix with salt.
Apply this to chicken pieces and keep aside for 1 hr.
Add 1/2 cup water and cook covered till chicken is tender and water is absorbed.
Add oil and fry till chicken pieces are well fried.
