I made this only for my husband who loved chicken with lots of masalas , fried , roasted , oily which is not good enough.
To avoid more masala and oil ; I choose to do something simple look curry but the taste should be great .
What I cooked was really really amazing in taste, the tenderness of chicken, the sweetness of onion, the tangyness of tomatoes and the juices taste is just mouth licking.
The whole onion ,whole tomato and whole garlic give a separate taste to your palate. And when you start chewing the slice of the coconut you may enjoy the taste.
More happy to see this , My family enjoyed this curry on table and sharing the feelings of their tastes.
Hope you may also like this curry.
