JMJMmain
4 servings
Servings4
4 lbs chicken legs with thighs
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cloves garlic
1.5 tablespoons madras style curry powder
0.5 teaspoon anchara masala
3-4 stems shadow benny
2 scallions
5 sprigs fresh thyme
1 ripe tomato
1 small onion
1.5 to 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 to 1.5 cups water
1 tablespoon ketchup
1

Wash the chicken pieces with vinegar and water, then drain them dry.

2

Season the chicken with salt, garlic, madras curry powder, anchara masala, ketchup, chopped shadow benny, scallions, thyme, half of the onion, and tomato. Mix well using hands or a spoon to ensure even coating. Allow to marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably a couple of hours.

3

Heat a dutch pot on high heat and add vegetable oil.

4

Once the oil is hot, add the other half of the onion and garlic. Stir and reduce heat to medium to sweat down the onion and garlic without burning.

5

After about 3 minutes, increase the heat slightly and add the curry powder to the pot. Stir to toast the curry powder for a few moments.

6

Add 1/4 cup of water to the pot to form a thick slurry with the curry powder. Cook on low heat for about 3-4 minutes until it thickens and the raw curry taste is cooked out.
