What’s for Dinner? Let the Fridge Decide!

I was standing in front of the fridge, wondering what to make for dinner… and guess what? No green vegetables in sight! 😅 So I checked into the freezer and there it was a pack of ground chicken smiling back at me like “Cook me tonight!” And guess who was chilling next to it? A bag of green peas like they both had already made dinner plans together!

Ingredients

  • 500 gm grounded chicken
  • 1 cup chopped red onion
  • 2 potato
  • 1/2 cup green peas
  • 1 tbsn crushed ginger garlic
  • 1/4 cup yoghurt
  • 1 tspn cumin powder
  • 1 tspn coriander powder
  • 1 tspn curry powder
  • 1/2 tspn turmeric powder
  • 2 tspn red chilli powder
  • 4-5 green cardamom
  • 3-4 clove
  • 1 bayleaf
  • mustard oil
  • coriander leaves

Instructions
 

  • Start by cutting the potatoes into medium-sized pieces., Put them in water and keep them aside.
  • Now heat oil in a pot and fry the potatoes until they turn slightly golden, then take them out and keep aside.
  • Now in the same pot add a bay leaf and let it temper, then add ginger and garlic and cook until golden.
  • Now add chopped onions with a pinch of sugar and cook until they turn caramelized.
  • Adding a pinch of sugar helps the onions caramelize faster and gives them a beautiful golden colour.
  • Now add all the spices along with salt and a little water, Cook it until the oil starts to come around the edges.
  • Now add the chicken and cook on medium-low heat for 5–6 minutes until it changes colour.
  • Add yogurt to the chicken cover the pot and cook for 3–4 minutes.
  • Now add the peas and fried potatoes, Mix everything well cover the pot and cook until both the potatoes and chicken are fully cooked.
  • Once everything is cooked well add chopped coriander leaves, mix gently cover the pot and switch off the flame.
  • Let it stay covered for 5–10 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy 😋 hot with roti, rice or bread!

Notes

  • I love to use mustard oil for extra flavour but you can use any vegetable oil you like.
  • If you don’t want to use sugar just skip it.
  • Add a spoon of butter mix it well and then serve, It will be just yum! 😋
