Pan-fried until the edges go dark and crispy, this chicken fry is the kind of dish you eat standing in the kitchen before it ever reaches the table. Dry-roasted with spices and finished with a fistful of curry leaves.

1/4 cup Fresh grated coconut
2 tsp Lemon juice

1 tsp Coriander powder
1 tsp Chilli powder
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
Salt, to taste
3 tsp Oil

Preparation

Marinate the chicken with lemon juice, salt, chilli powder, ginger garlic paste, turmeric powder for about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, grind together coconut and jeera in a mixer to fine paste by adding minimal water.
Step 3
Add this paste to the marinated chicken.
Step 4
Add the coriander powder and Stir everything together thoroughly.
Step 5
Heat a kadai/pan and add oil.

Tip

Patience at the dry-roasting stage is everything. The longer you let the moisture evaporate, the more concentrated the flavour becomes.
