Ingredients

Marinate

Masala

• Marinate chicken for at least 1 hour. Preferably overnight.
• In low heat, toast powders until aroma. Start with powders in a cold pan.
• Add powders and salt to curds. Mix well

• Add about 1/4 cup of curds to the marinated chicken.
• In the marinate bowl, add very little water to rinse all the remnants of the marinate. Keep aside for later
• In the remaining curds mix, add water to make it "runny" - when poured it should spread out and try to escape!

• In a tawa, heat 3-4 tbsp of oil in high heat or medium high. 
• When hot, add chicken and press down to increase contact. Fry until char. Flip and fry until char.
• Lower heat to medium. Add chilis, marinate remnants and 1/2 of the curds.
• Continue cooking. Keep pulling in the curds masala over the chicken as possible. Try to "crush / break" the chicken to get the masala into the chicken without pulling breaking it apart or pulling it off the bone!
• Flip the chicken after 4-5 mins and add the remaining marinate and lemon. Continue cooking & "crushing / breaking".
• Flip and cook until done.
