Chicken korma
I have very fond memories with this Chicken Korma.This is the very first chicken dish which I ever tasted in my life prepared by my Amma s elder sister when I was in 7th Std.Those were the days where my Ajja used to never allow us to prepare chicken in the house since it was a taboo those days,but were allowed to eat the parcel given by anyone.Gradually we were given permission to prepare occasionally….. As a kid I used to enjoy the view when my Amma and Aunty used to eat the chicken,but never felt like eating though it was thrill watching them.One fine day when we visited my aunt in Bangalore,as usual she prepared it for my Amma and I finally tasted small titbits of the chicken encouraged by my cousin V.My aunty used to always parcel her signature dish from Bangalore to Mangalore via my Maamu who used frequently visit Bangalore for his business trips and made a point to visit her.After that particular day I slowly started eating and enjoying and became a great fan one fine day,but that lasted for very few years,I quit eating chicken on and off and now I’m not a great fan ,but I do eat occasionally especially the homemade preparation,mostly only the gravy.I prefer only the bonny pieces than those healthy ones….So this is my story.Whats yours?
