Chicken Ghee Roast


After a long break I started my blogging with the 88th edition of blogging marathon.Some of my personal thinks take priority and blogging takes back seat.Hopefully I will be able to blog regularly.

For this week of the 88th edition I chose,Protein rich dishes as theme and sharing some the chicken recipes. I bookmarked a bunch of chicken recipes for the September 2017,mega marathon themed Protein rich dishes.But couldn't share so many chicken  recipes due to my sub themes,so using this opportunity to share those recipes.

Coming to the recipe its a very popular coastal Karnataka recipe especially in Mangalore.Its a fiery red,dry fry usually paired up with neer dosa.

The use of Bydagi chilly variety and the freshly ground spices gives a nice color and unique flavor.Also the key ingredient ghee makes it so rich and delicious.Making this fry takes only 30 minutes as no chopping of veggies involved.
