Cut chicken into small pieces.

:- It should not be too small.

Marinate the chicken pieces with chilly powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, curd and salt. Mix well.

Set aside for 4 - 5 hrs either outside or in a refrigerator.

:- You can also keep it marinated overnight.

Heat sufficient oil in a deep bottom pan.

Shallow fry the chicken, till its cooked well.

:- It¦ll definitely turn brown and can get burnt. So on a low flame, fry the chicken little by little. As you finish frying each time, remove the chicken and place it in another deep-pan.

Heat the fried chicken(do not use oil) on a medium flame.

Add green chillies, curry leaves and tomato ketchup and mix well, till all the ketchup gets coated on the chicken.

Keep heating it well on the medium flame.

:- Add more ketchup, if desired.

Add hot water(not too much) if you require gravy.

Add a little bit of chilly powder into the hot water and keep mixing well and heating for a while, till gravy becomes thick.

Mix properly and heat well.

:- Serve with parathas or chappathis.
