Here’s How You Can Prepare This Dish
Step 1: The first step is to marinate the chicken and we have used 200 gms of chicken. You then add all the ingredients like the ginger garlic paste, lemon juice, some roasted Kasturi methi, salt, turmeric powder and deghi mirch. Mix all the ingredients well and keep it aside for 30 to 40 minutes.
Step 2- Take a pan and add some ghee. You can even use oil if you do not have the option of ghee. Add all the dry masalas, add some boiled onion paste and mix it well on a medium flame until the onion paste gets slightly brown. Take the blanched tomato puree, mix it well on a medium flame. Then add the chicken pieces and the dry masalas. To give flavor to the dish, add turmeric, Kasturi methi, deghi mirch for the color, and some salt. Add the cashew paste to make the consistency thicker along with half a cup of water. Cover it for 15 minutes and let the chicken roast. Once you cook the chicken you can roast a few pieces more to make it drier. This will then be added on the main dish
Step 3- Whisk the eggs. Add some oil along with the dry masalas and mix it well to form an omelette mixture
Step 4- Use a round cylindrical object, grease it with some oil and leave it on the pan. Add the omelette mixture into the cylindrical object and make sure the omelette is half cooked. You then add the roasted chicken pieces on top of the omelette and cook it for 15 minutes. You can also learn How To Make Egg Biryani At Home So, now your lovely Chicken Patiala is ready.
