Background
Kerala chicken roast has many variations but I particularly like this version. It has all fresh ingredients which makes it very tasty and can be served as appetizer. It is a South Indian preparation and can be made for parties and get-togethers.
Ingredients
- ½ kg Chicken breast pieces, squared
- 1 tsp Turmeric
- 2 tsp Dry red chilli powder
- 2 tsp Coriander powder
- 1 tsp Garam masala
- 3 tsp Peppercorns
- 2 tsp Ginger, grated
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 2 tsp Vinegar
- 2 Tbsp Tomato ketchup
- 2 Tomatoes, puréed
- Salt as required
- Oil as required
- A sprig of curry leaves
- Coriander leaves for garnishing
Instructions
- Crush together garlic, ginger, vinegar, turmeric and peppercorns. Apply this mixture to the chicken pieces.
- Half boil this chicken with salt to taste to get the stock from it.
- In a pan, heat oil and fry the chicken pieces (without the stock) until brown on all sides and set aside.
- In the same pan, switch off the flame and add turmeric, chilli powder, coriander powder and garam masala.
- Now switch the flame on low and fry the spices until the rawness is gone taking care not to burn.
- Add 1 tsp of water to the spices and fry on low.
- Add the tomato purée and ketchup and fry until oil oozes out on the sides.
- Add curry leaves and chicken stock along with chicken pieces.
- Reduce the chicken stock until it becomes dry.
- Garnish with coriander leaves.
