Dry Roast Bydagi Chillies and Guntur Red Chillies first…for 1-2 minutes until the inside oil from Chillies comes out

Next add Coriander Seeds, Cumin, Pepper Corns, Fenugreek Seeds,.. Dry roast them until the aroma comes out… Don’t blacken them.. Remember don’t blacken them..

Now put them aside and let it cool down..

Now take them into blender, add garlic, Tamarind and little  water and grind it into fine paste…

( We will use only half the paste )

Take a Kadai, put 5 TBSPs of GHEE and then add marinated chicken to it..

Now cook it on medium flame and let the chicken cook till 75% … You should be able to poke the Chicken with a Fork easily… 

Take out the Chicken Pieces, leaving the ghee and little chicken stock inside the kadai only… 

The ghee floats on the top in the stock… Try to separate them both ….Take out the entire stock from the kadai… Just leave the Ghee inside the Kadai

Add Chopped onion to the ghee , salt and fry them until they are golden brown..

Now add the masala paste ( Just half of what we made) 2 TBSP of Masala Paste

To the kadai and add little salt enough for the masala paste.. 

Now fry it a little for 2 minutes… Add the Chicken stock now to the mix..Get it to consistency where most of the stock evaporated and ghee is floating on the top of masala mix….

Now add the chicken pieces to this one… Mix it thoroughly.. Add another2 TBSP of Ghee to it…. …. Add Jaggery to it…..Now put it in the High Heat so that the Masala Mix sticks to the chicken throughly and the chicken cooks along …. Keep mixing throughly… for 5 minutes or so… Now add good amount of curry leaves… mix it well and fry for 1 minute……
