Description
Recipe post by ahkila mohandas for the competition. Her Description follows. Chicken in curry leaves is a simple dish that i tried once. I am newlywed , living away from home and always have guests from both of our families and hence used to try cooking which is my passion. Curry leaves are always my weakness which i inherited from my mother, according to her it helps to reduce cholestrol and she adds it from fish fry to roasted pappadams. I always like the traditional way of cooking which uses low flame and less number of ingredients which will bring the true taste of each content which this recipe follows. This dish is highly influenced by my mother’s way of cooking biriyani masala except the ingredients. We can have this with chapathi , roti items along with raita or as a side dish with ghee rice. The rich look and aroma make the dish tempting and the very natural taste makes it yummy. Hence i wish to present this here which is easy, tasty and worth trying.
