Chicken chettinad
I adapted this recipe from my friend Kudupi raj maams blog.Well I had thought I had already posted this in my blog and today I found that I didn’t. I usually prepare Sanjeev Kapoors recipe but this recipe of Maam looked so interesting and tempting I had to try this and it was truly mindblowing.I had first tasted this dish in Calicut in a restaurant and second time I tasted when my cousin Divya had prepared Sanjeev Kapoors recipe,with little variations of hers , in Bangalore and both the taste still tickles my tastebuds… For more information on this recipe refer Kudupraj’s Garam Tawa blog.
