Chicken Kozhambu

Ingredients:

1-1.5 lb chicken
2 big Onions
2 big Tomatoes
2 to 3 tsp Ginger garlic paste
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
2 to 2 1/2 tsp Chilli powder
1/2 tsp Coriander powder
1/2 tsp Cumin seed powder
1 tsp Garam masala
Salt to taste
1 tsp Oil
Coriander leaves and Curry leaves

Procedure:

In a large pan, heat oil and add the garam masala items and onions. Saute the onions for a while. Then, add the ginger garlic paste and saute. Then, add the tomatoes, turmeric powder, chilli powder, coriander powder, cumin seed powder and salt. Fry this mixture for a while maybe adding a little bit of water. Then, add the chicken pieces with some water so that the chicken pieces are covered with water. Cover the pan with a lid and allow to cook for 1/2-1 hr. Once the oil starts to come out to the top, the kozhambu is done (the consistency should be between a gravy and watery - soup like). Add the curry leaves and coriander leaves for garnish. Goes well with rice.
