Hi rani i had always been trying to get a good recipe for pepper chicken. In tried your recipe and I simply loved it. Simple to do and yet so tasty. Could you please let me know if I could use the same recipe for mutton? Also do you have a recipe for mysore mutton. Would really appreciate it. Thanks. Reply :-
Thank you Nidhi for trying Pepper Chicken Chettinad. You could try the same recipe for mutton. You can roast and grind "2 tblsp- coconut flakes/dry coconut, 1 tsp-poppy seeds. 1 tsp- fennel seeds" and add it at the end. It tastes great. |

| Comment by Fatimah Thaga on 28 October 2008 02:14AM Hi, As my family is coming to my home for EID, I had tried this recipe together with the Jeera Rice and everyone was commenting on this new dish. It is not spicy and well-like by children. I have used boneless chicken. Do post new recipes. Reply :- Hi Fatimah, Good to hear that. All the recipes are given with medium spice level. You can modify it according to your taste. |

Comment by Suja on Mon, 8 Sep 2008 20:52:58 There is a seperate tradition for chettinad recipes. I do not see any of the ingredients for this variety other than the name. Please do not post recipes like this.we would appreciate the good ones ,the one in the picture looks more like some gooyee chicken gravy. Reply :- hi suja, thanks for the comments. chettinadu cuisine is the spiciest and most aromatic due to the use of all fresh spices. in this busy world, if you do have the time, you can go ahead and fry and grind all fresh spices for you chicken.this recipe is a quick version to get that same authentic chettinadu flavour. Do give it a try. The result will be superb. Anyways thanks for your feedback. Do go through and try the other recipes too. Expecting your comments frequently, |
