Method

To make the fried chicken pieces:- Take chicken pieces in a bowl-(We use dark meat so that it is nice and juicy when fried).Add salt, Aji-no-moto,1 tsp ginger/garlic paste, pepper powder-pinch, cornflour and mix-Then add 1 egg and mix in completely-(Egg coats the meat and keeps the juices in).

Heat oil in a frying wok or kadhai-Add chicken pieces few at a time(Do not crowd the kadhai) and fry until lightly golden brown-Drain and remove on a paper towel.

To make the sauce:-This does not need to be very salty-so control salt. Heat 2-3 tsp oil in a pan-Add cumin, add the chopped ginger and garlic and suate until fragrant. Add chopped chillies, curry leaves,1 tsp ginger/garlic paste, remaining pepper powder, chilli powder, salt,chilli/garlic paste, aji-no-moto, red color and mix-Cook for a few minutes.

Add a little water so that the chicken is covering by the masala(not gravy) and then add chicken to this paste and toss lightly-Stir in the coriander leaves and serve
