Background

Indian fried chicken recipe has many variations. This recipe is a pleasant result of my experimentation, mixing different ingredients recognisable to my taste buds. It turned out to be a family hit!

Ingredients

500g Chicken thighs boneless (Cut into medium pieces)
2 Onions, roughly chopped
2 Tomatoes, roughly chopped
1" Ginger, grated
6 Cloves garlic, grated
1 tsp Turmeric
1 tsp Coriander powder
½ tsp Cumin powder
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tsp Erős Pista sauce (optional)
Salt as required
1 Tbsp Spring onion greens, chopped (For garnishing)
3 Tbsp Oil
1 tsp Garam masala
½ tsp Soya sauce
1 tsp Tomato ketchup

Instructions

In a pan, heat 1 Tbsp oil on medium heat. Fry onions, ginger, garlic and tomato until soft. Remove from fire and let it cool.
Grind the above to a smooth paste and set aside.
Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a deep bottomed vessel. Add the onion paste, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric, chilli powder, Garam masala and salt and fry for couple of minutes.
Add 1 tsp Erős Pista, soya sauce, tomato ketchup and fry for a minute.
Add the chicken pieces and fry until cooked and all the moisture is gone.
Garnish with spring onion greens.

Tips

Erős Pista is a delicious hot paprika pickle from Hungary - you can substitute something similar if you like.
