ABOUT Kozhi Milagu Curry/ Chicken Pepper Curry RECIPE

I saw this recipe in Chef Venkatesh Bhat's cookshow. Its a simple recipe with an awesome taste. If you love pepper flavour this is for you.

Tomatoes - 2 small (chopped)
Ginger garlic paste- 1 &1/2teaspoon
Chilli powder - 1teaspoon
Turmeric powder - 1/4teaspoon
Coriander powder - 1teaspoon
Salt - as needed
Curry leaves - about half a fistful
Oil - 1&1/2 tablespoon
To dry roast and powder::
Peppercorns - a fistful

Instructions

Dry roast pepper corns and fennel seeds till nice aroma arises on low flame. Powder them in mixie.
Clean and wash the chicken well.
In a wide bottomed vessel, heat oil, add the finely chopped onion and fry till it is golden brown (till when it starts caramelizing). There is a mild sweetness to the dish which is rendered by the onion.
Add the ginger garlic paste and fry till the raw smell leaves.
Add the tomato and saute till the raw smell vanishes and add in the curry leaves and stir. Curry leaves always go very well with pepper flavour.
Add in the chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder and salt and mix well. Add in the chicken and mix well with the masala.
Add 1 and 1/2 to 2 teaspoon (as per your taste) of the ground pepper and fennel powder and stir well. Add around 1/2 cup water.
Let it boil till the chicken is cooked and the gravy reaches a semi dry consistency. Do not add more water else the consistency will not be reached and if you let it boil for long time there is a chance of chicken being overcooked.
Its great to have with roti/rice/rasam.
