Goldi Chicken recipe
Ingredients
- 1 kg chicken, cut into pieces
- 2 large onions, finely chopped
- 3-4 tomatoes, chopped
- 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, minced
- 2-3 green chilies, slit (adjust to your spice preference)
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 bay leaf
- 2-3 green cardamom pods
- 1-inch cinnamon stick
- 4-5 cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to your spice preference)
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- Salt to taste
- Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pot or deep pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds, bay leaf, green cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, and cloves. Sauté for a minute until the spices release their aroma.
- Add the chopped onions and cook until they turn golden brown.
- Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for another minute until the raw smell disappears.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and green chilies. Cook until the tomatoes become soft and the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
- Lower the heat and add the ground coriander, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and cook the spices for a couple of minutes.
- Add the chicken pieces to the pot and coat them evenly with the spice mixture. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken starts to brown.
- Pour in the plain yogurt and mix it with the chicken and spices. Cook for a few more minutes until the chicken is well coated with the yogurt and the mixture thickens.
- Add enough water to cover the chicken, and bring the curry to a simmer. Cover the pot and let the chicken cook on low to medium heat for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
- Once the chicken is cooked, sprinkle garam masala over the curry and give it a final stir.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve the Goldi Chicken curry hot with steamed rice, naan, or any bread of your choice.Note: The spices and quantities mentioned in this recipe are approximate and can be adjusted according to your taste preferences. You can also customize the curry by adding vegetables like potatoes, bell peppers, or peas, or by incorporating coconut milk for a richer flavor. Enjoy your homemade chicken curry!

Notes
Chicken Preparation: Ensure that the chicken is cleaned, washed, and patted dry before using it in the recipe. If you are using skin-on chicken, you can remove the skin for a healthier option. Cutting the chicken into evenly sized pieces will help them cook uniformly.
Balancing Flavors: Chicken curries often require a delicate balance of spices and flavors. Taste the curry as you cook and adjust the seasonings accordingly. If it's too spicy, you can add a bit of yogurt or cream to mellow down the heat. If it's too tangy, a pinch of sugar might help balance the flavors.
Cooking Time: Cooking times can vary depending on the size of the chicken pieces and the cooking method. Make sure the chicken is cooked thoroughly and reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Cooking the chicken over low to medium heat and allowing it to simmer gently will help the flavors meld together.
