Ingredients:
400g boneless chicken, cut into small
pieces (you may use any part of the
chicken e.g breast or thigh)
1 cup chana/pea or gram flour
1 teaspoon ground coriander/koljana
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 - 2 teaspoons chilli powder
1 teaspoon garam masala
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup water (or as needed)
Oil for deep frying
Method:
Steam the chicken pieces for about 10
minutes or until cooked. Allow to cool.
Sift the chana flour into a medium bowl.
Mix in the coriander, salt, turmeric,
chilli powder, garam masala, garlic and
onion powder.
Gradually pour the water into the well
and mix to form a thick, smooth batter.
Add the cooked chicken pieces, mix well
so all the chicken pieces are coated
with the batter. Leave to marinade for
30 - 60 minutes.
Heat the oil in a large, heavy saucepan.
Fry the battered chicken pieces in small
batches until golden brown, about 4 to 5
minutes. Drain on kitchen roll before
serving.
Cooks Tip:
• Use cauliflower florets or
• Washed and dried spinach leaves or
• Green pepper cut round thin slices,
pits removed or
• Aubergine slices
