Chicken curry
Cooking time: 10 min. / 30 min.Difficulty: easy
It was a nice change to have a bit of a meat in India. Very interesting part was buying the chicken already. It was as fresh as it gets. Traditionally there are no fridges in India`s meat shops. There are live chicken instead running around and got "ready" only when a customer comes and buy one or two.
Process
Heat up oil in a pan on a high heat. Fry shortly garlic, ginger and curry leaves. Stir constantly.
