Spicy Chicken Gravy

5:47 PM

This recipe is in continuation of the Masaledar Fish Curry and Spicy Mutton Gravy with the chicken this time. Since the garam masala used is in ground form, it results in a very spicier version as compared to the normal non-veg gravies. And that's the reason I don't prepare it very often even though it tastes grand. Also, I was not able to click a proper picture as everybody was in a hurry to eat and there was just no time. Read below for the recipe.....
