Instructions:
-
Begin by placing coriander seeds, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, nutmeg, and red chili in a small frying pan.
-
Over a medium flame, ‘dry-roast’ the spices, stirring frequently until they release a delightful ‘roasted’ aroma.
-
Transfer the spices into a clean coffee grinder or spice grinder and grind until fine. Place the ground spices in a bowl.
-
In the same frying pan, dry roast the fresh coconut over medium heat, stirring continuously. The coconut should develop brown flecks and a roasted aroma.
-
Add the roasted coconut to the bowl with the other ground spices.
-
In an electric blender, combine garlic, ginger, green chili, and some water. Blend until a paste is formed.
-
Heat oil in a 10-12 inch frying pan or sautΓ© pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and fry until they develop brown spots.
-
Pour in the garlic-ginger mixture, stir once, and reduce heat to medium.
-
Add chicken pieces, salt, and the spice-coconut mixture from the bowl. Stir and fry for 3-4 minutes until the chicken loses its pinkness.
-
Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until the chicken is tender. Stir occasionally to ensure even coloring of each chicken piece.
