Red Chicken Curry
Why "Red Chicken Curry"? Well, first of all, because this isn't really some kind of official recipe - not that there are really all that many "official" recipes for most Indian dishes, but, well there you are. And secondly because when I made this, I decided to actually get the dish to come out red (like in the restaurants, y'know?) and added red food coloring. And, well, turns out that the food coloring was pretty potent, and turned the dish not just red, but RED . So, there you go... Anyhow, it's good, really really good - recipe below. Marinate the chicken 1.5 lbs chicken thighs (leave the bone in, and the skin on) 1 clove ginger chopped into wee tiny bits 1" ginger grated 1 tsp kashmiri red chilli powder Juice of 1 lemon 1 cup yoghurt Put all this in a bowl, mix thoroughly, and let it sit for at least 30 minutes, and preferably overnight, in the fridge. Masala Powder 1 tsp coriander seeds 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 tsp fennel seeds 2 tsp black pepper
