Red charcoal chicken

Ingredients
1 chicken
1 cup dahi
1cup cream or malai
1 cup tomato ketchup (I prefer to use tomato puree with )
2 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
2 tbsp vinegar
2 tsp red chilli pwd
2 tsp dhania pwd
1 tsp garam masala pwd
Salt to taste
Sugar to taste
1 pc koyla (charcoal)
1 tsp ghee for smoking

METHOD
Marinate chicken in vinegar ginger-garlic paste salt and dhania,  red chilli pwd.leave for 1 / 2 hr.

Mix together curd, malai and ketchup ,see that there are no lumps.

Put the chicken pcs in it and put to cook .
Keep covered on a low flame. Stir in between .

It would take half hour to 45 min depending on the chicken.

Add garam masala and 2 tsp sugar.
Adjust sugar to taste if the gravy is sour add more sugar and vice versa.

Put the charcoal in flames as it turns red
Put it in a katori and place the katori in the chicken karahi pour 1 tbsp ghee and immediately close the lid .This would give a smokey texture to the chicken .Remove katori after 10 min.

Garnish with ginger julliens and chopped coriander leaves.

I remember reading  this recipe in a book but is very tasty when u don't Hv to do a lot just mix things and enjoy whatever u like while it cooks .

Adjust the consistency of the gravy of your by adding water or milk.
