I watching this and am amazed. My sister in law is an older lady who lives in a small Mexican village. Her house is out in the countryside. This is exactly how she cooks. The same fire stove. The same clay pots. The same grinding stone. Oposite sides of the world using practically the same old world techniques and equipment.
Actually I am a vegetarian but after seeing this iam also want to eat this curry I will prepare and again I will post the comments about taste I really love the colour and texture of the curry. Cooking is an art adhi andariki radhu urikey unnara mana peddavallu😊
My Mum was from kerala she’s gone 11 years now, you just helped me relive and rejoice her delicious secret cooking of which nobody knew how she did it!! Keep it up sweet and kind lady! Sharing is caring ❤
The best recipe for chicken curry. Spices and coconut grinded as a paste. The skill of cutting veg's without a chopping board,, amazing. Food must be finger licking good😋
I have made this chicken curry twice now and it has come out spectacularly. My husband loves it too and that is a big deal as some other recipes I tried didn't really work out or made the chicken too dry. Now, I've saved this recipe that ammachi made and follow the video every time I want to make it. Love it. Thank you ammachi and the Village Cooking team!
Been waiting for the most scientific chicken curry 👌 Cooking enthuciasts, plz take note. She made the curry base first, added the last installment of water, brought it to boil, added the meat at the last stage and completed the procedure without adding anything, even water further. This technique creates the most succulent and juicy pieces. Cook breast pieces this way and compare with other curries, you'll agree with me. NB: If you find liver and prawn too tough, rubbery and chewy, try this technique.
Normally we fry the onion,ginger and garlic first , then add the meat, fry for some time more and then add water after the oil is separated from the masalas. Frying the meat first caramelises the outer portion of the meat, adding to the taste. But your words have given me new idea, I have to try cooking that way and see the result.
Takes you back in time of our parents. This lovely lady is amazing at how she prepares the meal. Difficult style for us now, but, truly down to earth village style. Nature's way of doing things without the luxuries of life. Bless your hea❤t my friend.❤❤❤❤
In my college days when I was in chennai,I went to one Kerala Hotel for lunch,Man oh man,I was blown away when I tasted kerala style fish curry,It was just amazing and really tasty.Little sour flavor,rich in spices and thick gravy. I love South Indian Non veg ❤🔥
Awesome ammachi 🙏....you remind me of my paati. She was from pollachi but she is no more. When i was a kid she used to make one mutton curry. The tastiest mutton curry i ever had in my life. That curry was a dry gravy with grated coconut sprinkled as final touch. I have been searching for that recipe for so many years.
Initially I was scared of cooking....but now it has become my hobby.... All the masala she added we also add(except coconut 🥥 of course 😀) but the way is very different....will try this too. My roommate (from Kerala) will love it for sure LOVE from Odisha ❤️
This is so similar to Mexican food, like the rock I use to use it for tortillas, cheese and grounding spices like her it is amazing how alike it is to my culture. My respect for this woman 😊
Very grateful for this video. My friend made this and that was one of the best chicken curries I had ever had. He sent me this link and I was also able to do a fairly good repeat.
Just awesome. Keeping up the old tradition. It reminds me of my Mother and the Mutton which she used to make on Sundays. Till today, I long for those species and the aroma. Babaji bless her soul
My mother and my ammachi too slices every thing just like her..though I don't know how to do that... it's just amazing.. I love the mud vessels she uses to cook.
Ammama thank u so muchhh njn vicharichu kurche budhimuttu akum cheyan nadan chicken curry but just onnu try akam ennu vicharichu butt it came out reallyy delicious nalla taste indayirnu ellvrkum ishtayii thank u so much 😘😘❤️❤️
I was scared for her with the way she's holding the knife and cutting up her vegetables. But as I continue to watch her technique. I then Told myself to relax lol this aunty's been cutting with this knife way before I even knew what a knife is and used for. I said maybe her hands have been so strong and planted for so long. That now She has to hold the knife like this. But I must say. I ran to my kitchen and took out some chicken to thaw out so I can replicate this amazingly well cooked recipe. So thank you Aunty for all that you do. Because you've inspired me too😍
It's looks really awesome.. definitely i will try the same way cooking chicken... I like very much kerala food and kerala people.... Thank you for sharing
I would love to try that.. Ready the masala with coconut no chicken marinating n just put everything in the pot no need to add more masala while cooking.... Simple looks very delicious.. Love to try South Indian chicken recipes
I have been looking for a chicken recipe for my Sunday's dinner for friends here and finally use the grated coconut I have.. Just came across this recipe and it reminded me of my late maternal Grandma (from Thadiyoor, Kerala )the way she was cooking. I have everything except for curry leaves but coriander leaves would do 😊
Specifically came here to praise that unique cutting technique that you'll only find women in kerala has got in entire world. So fearless but precise at same time. kudos
Love this video .we use the griding stone like yours in our place (N E India) we use the griding stone to grind spices and chutney and the taste of the chutney is excellent and tastier as compared to the one grinded by electronic grinder..The way you prepare and cook is so fascinating.. ❤️ your cooking pot. 👍🙏
