步驟

Wash, clean and place the chicken parts in a bowl.

Add one 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and tamarind juice(3 tbsps), mix and let it marinate for 15 minutes.

Over medium heat, place a cooking pan and pour in the oil(4 tbsps).

Once the oil heats(1 minute), add the curry leaves, pandan leaf(2-inch), cardamom(3), and cinnamon(1-inch) followed by ginger-garlic paste(1 tbs).

Cook for 2 minutes and then add the onions(1 large), green chilllies(2) and tomatoes(1 medium).

Sautee the ingredients over low-medium heat until onions and tomatoes turn soft. 5-7 minutes.

Reduce heat and add the chicken(with the marinade)to the cooking pan.

Cook until the tamarind juice is absorbed. let the chicken brown with a little added oil.

Frequently mix the chicken with the spices to avoid the chicken parts sticking to the pan.

Add turmeric(1/2 tsp), cumin(2 tsp), coriander(3 tsp), and pepper(2tbsp) over the chicken while the heat is low.

Mix all the ingredients in the pan for 3-5 minutes while cooking the meat with the spices.

Cover and let the curry simmer for 5-7 minutes until there is no liquid left

If you prefer to fry the chicken at this stage, add 2 tablespoons of oil and let the chicken brown slightly OR continue to cook until all liquid evaporates and proceed to the next stage.

Pour in the coconut milk, reduce heat, season with salt if necessary then cover and simmer until gravy thickens and takes on a darker hue.15-25 minutes.

Serve warm with your favourite rice and curry dishes. meal ideas given above.
