Alaikkum Assalam Roz,
You don't need to do sautéing in this, this is the naadan method , so mix and cook and all the ingredients together and do seasoning with shallots and curry leaves in the end..
ok try that too and let me know.. :)

Hi Dipthi,
It seems I missed your mssg, sorry, Hope to see you again.. :)

Laxmi,
Your message was a real surprise in the morning!
My mom, grand mom all cooked this varutharacha curry in the same way, I just followed it!
I think there was a little difference in the powders added, since the new generation uses less masala powders than the previous ones..
thank you, and come back Laxmi.. :)

Thanks Aisha, for the fb.
You don't need to cut down coriander powder.If you make it reddish, try kashmiri chilli powder or paprika powder in that. It will help.

For coconut I use fresh coconut or dried coconut powder( kopra powder). Dried coconut powder is good for roasting and gets brown color easily. So try to get it.I have never seen a sweetened version of coconut. You can try other chicken curry with coconut milk from this blog. You may like it.. :) Let me know if you have any more doubts..

Hello Seena. I am a fan of Indian food but i could never get Chicken curry right. I tried your recipe and it was delicious :) As you mentioned it was yellowish, although I added tom paste. How can I make it reddish? I don't want to cut down on coriander powder.

Also, I blended the coconut for a while but still I could feel it crunchy in the paste after it is cooked. What did I do wrong? I used sweetened coconut (I couldn't find unsweetened in my grocery store) and soaked in in water so its not sweet anymore.

Nimi,thanks dear,great to know that your hubby loved it..
You have to cook chicken, veggies and masala paste together. Otherwise masalas can't coat chicken pieces properly.And better you do it on a low flame.So next time you try to make it in this way.
Adding lemon juice is too good, that can increase taste, instead you can use vinegar too. It will make the meat tender.
Again thanks, keep visiting, am sure you can be a good cook soon! ( one more thing, I have a cousin in your name...:))

2007-10-31T08:00:00.000+04:00

Hi Seena,

Thank you so much for the reply... Actually i prepared it day before yesterday and you will be happy to know that he liked it very much, that is a great delight for me. Special thanks for you!!! i prepared chicken fry as well, yesterday... and it was amazing.Apart from the ingredients you mentioned i added little lemon juice and made a paste of them and applied. His appreciation was overwhelming!!!

I have another doubt..in chicken curry, though it came out very well, i guess the pieces were little bland as if it didn't absorb the masala properly.. i did as you said .. but i didn't mix all the things & cook at once but fried all the vegies in lil oil slightly and then added chicken and masala paste.. is it the reason?

I am just learning to cook and most of the time it becomes a great disaster..... anyways , from now on i can get simple recipes from you... looking forward to make more recipes and become a good cook.

Once again thank you very much,
regards.

Hi Nimi,
Thanks for visiting here..
Nothing wrong in your doubt, actually this, and most of the varutharacha curries will have a dark brown color. At home we have home made coriander powder and here I use the ready made one. I think it is the reason for the color change. And you have to roast the coconut till brown,(frying more will burn it) and in the last stage, add coriander powder and roast for few seconds..However, no change in taste because of this, I think. Hope I could clear your doubt, my wishes to you to be a good cook, hope to see you back..

I am just learing to cook all these stuff. I have a doubt, a silly one though.. He always says it will be dark brown coloured, but it doesn't appears so, here.. any specific reason? You know he is a perfectionist!!!
