Chicken Ghee Roast

I had no idea how good this item was. We had first tasted this in a restaurant at Bangalore called Coast to Coast and we became a huge fan of it. We always wanted to eat more and more even though we were full. When I got married and moved to Singapore i felt bad as I was not able to have any more ghee roasts. So my husband bought some ghee roast ready made masala from a shop in mangalore. I prepared it once but was not satisfied. Therefore, I collected the ingredients information from the wrapper and some ingredients that my mom had suggested and few extra of my own. Finally after several tries now my husband has become a huge fan of my ghee roast and says that it is better than the restaurants one. My next goal is to make everybody eat this and allow them to decide if it is really that great !!. You try it and let me know :)

NOTE : One can also try this with vegetables like baby corn,  baby potatoes. mushroom and any other vegetables of your wish instead of chicken. Gives you almost the same taste.


NOTE : Number of chilies depend on how spicy they are. I am using 12 as mine are not very spicy

Time Taken : 30 Minutes

Yield : 3-4 servings
