curry chicken

Ingredients needed

---------------------------

1 kg chicken/onion/green chilli, garlic,tomotoe/red chilly powder/Coriander powder/any cooking oil/cooking salt

Place the pan on the stowe, pour some oil, when oil heated put some mustard seeds; when it starts bursting put the sliced onion (3-4 nos. according to the quantity of gravy u need)+ginger ( a small piece)+garlic 6-7 pieces +green chilli 1 or 2. Keep mixing. When the colour turns to yellow slow down the fire and put one teaspoon of chilly powder and two teaspoon of coriander powder. mix it properly and then add some tomoatoes (sliced; once you add tomatoes, water will start oozing out from it resulting in a paste-like consistency) . So, mix the items properly until it turn to a paste.: THIS IS THE BASE

Now, put the sliced chicken into the paste, mix thoroughly for a while and add water and cooking salt sufficient for gravy. Cook it with the lid closed for half an hour or so. chicken curry should be ideally ready by now. very simple.!! If you feel spicyness is too much and you cant bear it, then add some coccunut milk (u will get this in market)- it can reduce the spiciness..
