Erode Style Chicken Thanni Kuzhambu Recipe with step wise pictures.
Delicious chicken kuzhambu which has lots of flavour and is little liquidy like rasam. This can be had as a soup or a light lunch when poured over a bowl with hot rice.
Thanni kuzhambu is nothing but a liquidy or watery chicken curry. The gravy has lots of flavour in them and is almost like a soup. I came across this recipe preparation from one of my friend which mentioned about this type of gravy. I did a research online and came across few recipes and tried my version of it. It tasted delicious.
This recipe doesn't need any tomatoes, but i found that this curry lacked a tartness. So i added some lemon juice in the end and it was yummy.
