Any invite from dear Shwetha unfailingly triggers anticipation of lip-smacking surprises. A bright and yellow Chicken Curry, cooked in the traditional Mangalorean way, was what she decided to treat me to this time.
Mangalorean chicken curry is a popular and flavorous chicken gravy that rallies a host of regional spices - namely black pepper corns, coriander seeds, red chillies, cumin, fenugreek seeds, cloves and cinnamon in its making. Coconut, being elemental to Mangalorean cuisine, rules as the cardinal ingredient sweetly equipoising the sultriness of red chillies. Shwetha paired the curry with aqueous and delicious Appams – masterfully combining diverse cuisines on a platter.
The meal was gentle on the palate, warming to the heart and lingering to the soul. Loved it!
