Method of Preparation
1.
Marinate chicken with salt, ginger and garlic
and keep it aside for 1 hour.
2.
Make a fine paste of fried onion, cashew, ginger
and garlic by adding little water.
3.
Heat ghee in a pot; add Cinnamon, Green Cardamom,
Clove and Bay leaf.
4.
Then add ginger, garlic and green chilli paste and
cook it until raw flavour goes off. Then add brown gravy paste and cook it for
12-15 minutes at medium to low flame. Then add beaten curd and cook further for
5 minutes.
5.
Heat little ghee in other pot and add chicken
and sauté it for 5 minutes. And remove it and put it in gravy and then add
khoya in gravy.
6.
Burn the charcoal on the open flame and put it
on small katori or you can make a small katori from aluminium foil too.
7.
Add ½ tbsp of ghee in that charcoal and immediately
place the katori in the chicken gravy and close the lid for 1 minute. You can
add one clove also in charcoal. Smoke should trap inside. Remove katori after that.
8.
Then remove this katori and add garam masala,
mace – cardamom powder, rose water, Kewra water and salt as required.
9.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until chicken is tender.
10.
Serve hot and garnish with cream/ Rogan or fried
onions.
