Ingredients for Hyderabadi Chicken


Preperation steps for Hyderabadi Chicken

  Take a grinder and add all the ingredients under the heading of "Marinate paste", and grind to make a smooth paste.

  Take the whole Garam masala in pan and dry roast till nice aroma comes from them. Let them cool down and once cool down completely dry grind to make coarse powder.

  Take a large bowl, add curd, 4 tablespoons of the Marinate paste, 2 tablespoons of Mustard oil, turmeric and mix well using your hand. Now add the chicken pieces into the bowl and apply the marination all over the chicken pieces very well. Rub the meat with the marination. Now put the marinated chicken in an airtight container and keep inside the refrigerator for over night or at least 2 hours.

  Next morning remove the chicken and keep aside for cooking.

  Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a large pan, add curry leaves in the oil, and sliced onion, sprinkle some salt and fry till the onion becomes soft and light golden in color.

  Now add the rest of the Marinate paste into the pan and keep stirring by sprinkling little water. Oil will start oozing now. Add the marinated chicken pieces along with the marinate paste to the pan and mix with the onion & masala of the pan. Now put a lid over the pan, simmer the gas and leave the chicken cook for at least for 10 minutes.

  After 10 minutes open the lid, you will see lots f water has come out from the chicken and the chicken has almost cooked with it's own water. Higher the gas and start evaporating the excess water. Keep stirring to prevent from burning at the bottom. When all the water will be dried and oil starts separating from the wall of pan, add the water water and salt to taste.

  Cover again and simmer the gas for another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes remove the lid and turn off the gas. Sprinkle the "Garam Masala" powder on the top. Give the curry a standing time of 10 minutes before serving.
