Weekend calling ... Goanese Cafreal Chicken..
Grind to a paste coriander leaves, spring onion ( leaf and all) , ginger, garlic, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, 2 tspns sugar, salt to taste, garam masala ( cloves , cinnamon , don't cringe but I added cardamom too) , green chillies in 4 teaspoons red wine vinegar. Marinate chicken in it . Heat oil in pan and fry onions in it and keep it aside. Add a little more oil and add the chicken pieces with the marinade. I cooked both sides of the chicken on high flame for around five minutes. Then lowered the heat , covered the pan and cooked it for another twelve minutes . Added the fried onions , couldn't get myself to add a dollop of butter. Mixed the onions and the cooked chicken . This is supposed to be a dry preparation . It is a lovely combination of the heat of the chillies, the sweetness of sugar , and the tartness of vinegar .. Bon appetit! It went very well with pita bread stuffed with salad ...
For those looking for exact measurements and the original recipe, please google Aditya Bal Cafreal Chicken ..
