notes
**i have just used 12 chillies and the spiciness was perfect .you can add 15 kashmiri and 3 to 4 bedgi if you can tolerate more spice
**you need to be a little generous on ghee ,i have just added 2 and 1/2 tbsp, original recipe calls for upto 1 cup for 1 kg chicken😋😋
***you may add more tamarind if you want it more tangy.
Chicken Ghee Roast is a dry preparation there is no gravy as such.It is served with neer dosa or with rice.It goes well porotta or dosa as well.The essence of ghee roast lies in freshly ground spices and ghee don't use dalda or any vanaspati to compromise with the taste.I served it with coconut rice and chicken 65 with some cucumber raita and it was a huge hit.We relished every bit of it..

Hi,
Am unable to get Kashmiri whole chilly.. can I use regular or powder?
Yes you can use bedgi instead if you find..kashmiri is on a little less spicy side ..hence I prefer it ..try to use dry whole chillies instead of chilli powder
Looks so tempting, Gloria!!
