Recipe Notes
- If you are using Country Chicken, make sure you get young one as older chicken tends to be chewy. Cooking time may be longer for country chicken when compared to regular chicken. No need to pressure cook country chicken, you can cook in the regular pan itself, you might need some extra time, that's all!.
- In Ganesh’s own words: “When you add coconut milk/ cream, the curry color will change from green to white, and when you add my masala powder towards the end, it will change from white to brown/ red”.
- Veggi Twist: Vegetarians/ Eggetarians - you can use this recipe and cook awesome mixed vegetable/ mushroom/ choya chunks/ paneer/ egg (boiled) curries. Just name the dish accordingly (GWB"X"C) !!!
