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.

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
