  • Dry roast the ingredients given under' to dry roast'  over a low flame for 2 minutes. Saute continuously. Do not burn the spices. When done, allow it to cool. ( As my coriander powder and pepper powder is dry roasted powders, I added them directly along with grinding ingredients.)
  • Now grind these dry roasted spices along with curd, lemon juice, kashmir chili powder (do not use red chili powder), turmeric powder, ginger and garlic to a fine smooth paste.
  • Marinate the washed chicken pieces with this marinade and salt. Set it aside for an hour.
  • Now heat ghee/butter in a pan and saute the finely chopped onion well for few minutes. Now place the marinated chicken pieces along with the marinade. Fry it until the gravy becomes thick. When done add jaggery/sugar to it and give a fine stir. 
  • Cook until all the chicken pieces are well coated with the thick masala. 
  • When done garnish with curry leaves and serve hot with steamed rice or ghee rice.
