Instructions to make Achari Murgh/Chicken Curry:
- First Up: Wash & Clean the Chicken pieces well- Marinate the same with some salt & fresh lemon juice & a heaped tbsp of the Achar/Pickle Masala- Homemade- (this step is optional though but I do use for an extensive taste & flavours enhancer that’s the indication of the Achar used in it)- Set Aside, for at least 2-3 hrs time (more or overnight is always best, I keep on reiterating- if not absolutely rushed)
- Heat up a heavy bottomed pan over the medium-high flame: Add in the cooking & mustard oil both in it & now, add in all the tempering spices & sauté until they turn aromatic & starts spluttering & in goes the chopped onions into it- Sauté until they’re translucent & soft & slightly brown in colour perhaps
- Time to add in the chopped tomatoes & the 2G Paste…Salt, Turmeric & Red Chilli Powders & rest all other aforementioned dry spices…Keep sautéing until the raw smell goes off & the tomatoes turn absolutely juicy & mushy- Need to cook likely for about 5-6 mins time
- Flame to be maintained in the medium-low & by covering the pan & stirring occasionally in between we need to cook until now…Now is the good time to add in the marinated Chicken Pieces & sauté & cook on the high heat for about 7-8 mins time without any cover
- Once it’s well sautéed & nicely gently browned- Add in the well whisked curd with some sugar to the chicken and mix everything well together until nicely blended & well combined, while mixing the yoghurt- the flame to be kept at the lowest else, it might get curdled….
- Once, mixed well together- Add in some boiled water too, as the consistency we want- However, this particular recipe doesn’t call for enough gravy rather, it’s a bit dried one which goes well with both steamed rice/Pulao and any forms of Indian Breads of your choice
- Post adding in the hot water- Cover the pan & reducing the heat, cook it for about the next 20-30 mins time or until well cooked, stirring occasionally in between to avoid catching the bottom of the pan….
- Once that’s done Time to add in the Garam Masala Powder & the roughly crushed Garlic Cloves, add some more dash of the raw mustard oil- Cover back & slow cook again for another 15-20 mins time (add in some splashes of hot water in case, it goes quite dry)
- Once done: Add in some more split green chillies Keep it on the hot oven, in its resting time with the lid on- for another 10 mins time…Ready to be served now…ENJOY
- Ready to serve and ENJOY!
