The Very Hungry Tummy

Chicken Pickle

I have translated the recipe from my mother's telugu recipe. I tried my best to capture picture perfetcly, but I couldn't . A reason for this may be the picure couldn't carry the spicy aroma of the pickle with it. The picture may lack its appeal but the pickle definitly is gud with its tempting flavours and aromas.



Ingredients:

( Free Range Chicken breast pieces are good for this pickle)

Chicken 800 gms

Oil 300 gms

Salt 4 tsps (according to your taste)

Red Chilli Powder 6tsps

Turmeric 1 tspn

Ginger Garlic Paste 6tsps

Coriander Powder 6tsps

Masala Powder (Cloves + Cinnamon + Star anise + Cardamon ) - 1/2 tspn

Lime Juice 2 tsps

Tamarind Paste 1 +1/2 tsps



Method :


1. Cut the chicken into bite size pieces. Wash the chicken, and then boil the chicken in 1 cup water till the chicken becomes dry .
2. Deep Fry the chicken in the oil, for 10 min
3. Add Ginger Garlic Paste to the chcicken fry unitl its raw smell disappears
4. Add the remaining ingrdients, and cook another 10 min.
5. Keep aside and allow it to cool and then store in a clean dry jar.
6. Keep in Cool Dry place . Refrigirator is the best place.


Note:Hey this lasts only for 2 to 3 weeks. As salt is the only preservative, and remember this is chicken. The chicken pieces will be a bit hard to bite. But yummy.
