saffron chicken curry

 

Kesari Murg (healthy)









This is my favorite form of chicken curry, not only because it tastes great but also because it requires very little work in the kitchen. Additionally, I always choose nutritious recipes based on what my family requires.

    Here is my version of healthy saffron chicken curry......


Ingredients......

1 bowl thick warm milk

1 pinch of saffron 

1 Cup milk powder 

1 tblsp Green chilli paste(spicy)

1 tbsp GG paste 

1 tsp Fresh grounded garam masala 

¼ tsp Turmeric powder 

½ Cup malai

½ Cup desi ghee 

Salt to taste 

 

Preparations......


Take warm milk add saffron mix well cover and keep for later use.

Churn the malai keep aside.

Wash and trim off any excess fat from the chicken drumstick, this will not only enhance the flavor but also help the chicken cook more evenly. Keep in a mixing bowl.

 Now first add salt and turmeric powder give a nice massage and rub the salt turmeric into the chicken slits.

 Now add milk powder, GG paste, garam masala,green chilli paste ( before that you must rub your hand with some oil to help dilute the capsaicin). 

After nicely rubbed cover and keep aside. 

  Grab a vok that has the exact matching lid. Heat, add the ghee, and when it's just warm, place each chicken piece on the ghee in turn. Then, sprinkle with water, cover, and fry.Continue in this manner until the chicken is crispy and lightly browned.

 When it's crispier, add any remaining marinades and a full cup of water. Stir everything thoroughly and boil over low heat until the oil separates and the gravy thickens.

  Turn off the gas. Add the churned malai and stir thoroughly. Next, add the saffron mix milk and a teaspoon of desi ghee to the top. Stir well. Cover the wok and keep it covered until you're ready to serve.

Enjoy my version of saffron chicken curry.
