So this is Sunni's chicken 65, which I LOVE, with my tiny little variations.
Ingredients:
Chicken breast cut into cubes
1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp chili-garlic sauce/sambal
1 tsp zeera/cumin powder
a splash or two or lemon juice and vinegar
pinch of cayenne pepper/lal mirch
salt and pepper to taste
pinch of red food color (optional)
5-6 curry leaves
1/2 tsp black mustard seeds/rye
1 jalapeno, sliced
Mix the first set of ingredients together and let marinate for at least a half hour to an hour. Heat oil over medium high heat. Mix about 3-4 tbsp of corn starch into the chicken mixture until the chicken is all coated. When the oil is hot enough, drop the chicken pieces into the oil (individually, or they will stick together!). Fry for about 7 minutes until the chicken is cooked. Drain.
In a separate pan, heat about a tbsp or two of oil, add the curry leaves, jalapeno slices, and mustard seeds and fry until the jalapeno looks a little soft and the mustard seeds start to "pop". Throw in the chicken and stir for about 30 seconds to a minute. Serve immediately.
Sana I'm loving your variations! I think I'm going to try it your way...but I noticed when I use regular flour as opposed to cornstarch if doesn't stick together if you put it in together.
