Murg Methi

I harvested another crop of methi this weekend and put it to good use. Balcony farming is so addictive and fulfilling!!

Here is the recipe for Murg Methi:


Ingredients:


Boneless chicken cut into pieces - 500 gms
Chopped Methi - one cup
Finely sliced Onion - 1 (large)
Finely chopped tomato - 1 (large)
Ginger-Garlic paste - 1 tbsp
Finely chopped Green chillies - 2
Curds - 1/4 cup
Kashmiri chilli powder - 1 tsp
Turmeric Powder - 1 tsp
Jeera Powder - 1/2 tsp
Dhana powder - 1/2 tsp
Garam masala - 1 tsp
Sugar - 1 tsp
Oil- 2 tbsps
Salt - taste

Method:


Heat oil in a non-stick pan. Saute the onions until brown. Add the methi leaves and continue cooking for 5-8 minutes. Now, add the chopped tomato, green chillies, ginger and garlic and cook until the oil begins to leave the side. Add the chicken, chilli,  turmeric, jeera, dhana and garam masala and cook until the chicken is almost completely cooked. Lastly, add the curd and a tea-spoon of sugar and cook until the chicken is tender and ready to be served.
