Lovely recipe ! The first time I made it I forgot to add the cardamom powder to the marinade…it came out well anyways. The second time I added it as required and that made a huge difference indeed. That flavor is what made it into an authentic kerala chicken curry. As soon as u open the lid of the dish a couple of hrs after its made, the aroma of fresh ground cardamom tickles yr olfactory senses 🙂 and its sooo good. Need I say abt the flavor then ?!
Very tasty and so easy to make…unbelievable,keep posting such recipies.
the first chicken recipe i tried out..it came out so well…
great recipe sindhu…keep going..
Foo is really jealous sindhu. Never mind. I tried this today. It was superb.
Foo, Don`t be so jealous. It is an excellent receipe
Great dish! absolutely tasty!
Nalla onaandharam recipe. I tried it and loved it. Just excellent. Please provide some more recipes
Absolutely loved it.Don`t even ask why but it had a hint of rasam as well.Treat and not at all disappointed. made my weekend!
this recepie came out very tasty.Thanks very much
kewl recipe:)thanks a lot..
Hey Foo, Sindhu`s receipe is really good. If your curry came out bad that means you don`t know how to cook even reading a receipe. Everybody who rated this receipe made this curry very tasty. Yours was bad, that means you are bad cook or you are very jealous. Any way I tried this receipe and it was fantastic. Sindhu thank you very much. Post more….
Sindhu, very good recipe ! People like `Foo` should probably stay away from cooking due to obvious reasons ! First of all, the name Foo looks made up or phony. This person obviously has no clue about cooking or was on crack while making this dish ! Foo, why don`t you post something on the website so that you can share your culinary skills with the rest of the world and we get to learn something from you as well.
my husband loved this dish i prepared. I was looking for a site that would provide me with tried and tested recipes. All thanks to God for providing me this site and thanx to pachakam.com and the people who have tried it and commented on the dishes they try. It is very helpful in choosing the right dish to prepare.
The dish was excellent i made a few changes by adding a little cocnut milk n beleive me it was just awesome try adding some cocnut milk n have the dish with Iddiyapam too good.
