I recently read a post on vegetarianism versus no vegetarianism. Vegetarians say that if all the slaughterhouses were made of glass the whole world would be vegetarian. And this recent post said that if all the vegetarians had to wash off fresh manure off their vegetables they would turn non vegetarian.
I am a die hard non vegetarian but even I agree that if I saw an animal being slaughtered I wouldn’t be able to eat it. And the debate rages on!! I, personally believe that it is a matter of personal choice. After all the food chain has to be kept intact. You can’t blame the lion or the tiger for killing the beautiful, doe eyed deer. Similarly humans also eat animal meat. You can’t change that. The mature thing is to not be judgemental regarding food habits of half the people on this planet.
This recipe is sort of a fusion dish. It has the Indian masalas and also uses cornflour for thickening which is more commonly used in continental cuisine.
Ingredients
1 kg chicken
3 onions, chopped
2 green chillies, slit
1 cup cream
2 cups milk
1 tbsp cornflour+2 tbsp milk
3 tbspkasurimethi
For the dry masala
1 tbsp cumin seeds
2 tbsp coriander seeds
1 tbsp black pepper
2 cloves
1” cinnamon
Dry roast the masala and grind to a smooth powder. Heat some oil. Add the green chillies and onions. Saute till the onions are translucent. Add the dry masala and kasurimethi and cook for 2 minutes. Now add the chicken and bhuno for 5-7 minutes. Add the cream, milk and salt. Simmer until the chicken is cooked. Mix the cornflour and milk and add to the chicken. Cook for a few minutes till the gravy thickens.
