Chicken Curry With Dry Coconut Masala - Simple, quick, and easy chicken curry with dry coconut masala and cashew paste. Even though those are many different varieties of chicken curry, we usually prefer this chicken for any function or family gathering at home. Very simple chicken curry with just dry coconut and few masalas like cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, shahijeera.

For this recipe, I soaked the cleaned chicken in salt water for about 10 minutes. Soaking in saltwater makes the chicken cook fast, soft, and tender. After soaking in saltwater it doesn't require to marinate the chicken for too long like 1 or 2 hours. Just 15 minutes of marination makes the chicken very tender.

After soaking in salt water, just remove the water, and then the next step is marination to make the curry more tasty and tender chicken. In this recipe, I used basic marination with very little ingredients like chili powder, salt, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, lemon juice, and oil.

Finally, I want to highlight some of my recipe like,
