Tangy Tasty Pepper Chicken

I wanted to try something different from the usual chicken fry and chicken curry and landed up here.It turned out to be really tasty and compliments showered.

INGREDIENTS:

Boneless Chicken : 1 kg
Onion: 3 nos
Pepper powder : 6 tsp
Turmeric powder : 1tsp
Greenchillies : 7 nos
Curry Leaves : a cup
Ginger : 1 small piece
Lemon :1
Salt

METHOD:

(1)Mix  5 tsp pepper powder, turmeric powder,salt, lemon juice, salt and marinate the chicken.The longer the chicken is kept marinated, the masala gets absorbed unformly and the tastier it turns out to be.

(2) After 2-3 hours, cook the marinated chicken in a kadai/wok.Keep it closed till it gets cooked well.Pour little water,if necessary, since the chicken will give out water.

(3)Take another pan , heat oil, fry ginger , onions, green chillies and curry leaves .Also add the remaining black pepper and fry till the onions turn golden brown.Mix the chicken with this and keep on  low flame for some time.

Mooli Ki Roti

 
Off late,I have been trying out various experiments with rotis as we have rotis for dinner.Its good to taste a new one every time.Its Mooli season and I thought , lets make use of  of it.This is a nice way to eat methi leaves for the ones who dont like the taste of it.You dont get to know the taste and it is healthy .So, Eat healthy!!

INGREDIENTS:

Mooli / radish - 3 nos
methi/fenugreek leaves: 1 cup
pudina/mint leaves : 1 cup
chilli powder : 2 tsp
salt : 1 tbsp
ajwain seeds(Carom seed) : 1 tbsp
Whole Wheat Flour : 4 cups

Method:

Grind the moolis in a mixer with some water if necessary.Since , radish themselves have water in it, you wont need to add extra.Mix all the listed ingredients and make a fine dough.Instead of mixing all together, you can even stuff the filling with mooli, methi and pudina between two rotis and have tasty mooli parathas.Rahul prefers rotis over parathas, and hence the experiment.
