    Dahi Chicken Recipe - Curd Chicken Curry Recipe with step wise pictures.

    Spicy, tangy and very flavourful dahi chicken which taste great with roti, rice or pulao. Super delicious and lipsmacking curry.

    Dahi chicken is a simple chicken curry, which has yogurt added in. The tangy taste will make this super delicious. It doesn't have tomatoes added in them, all the tang comes from dahi. The whole curry gets its unique aroma from kasuri methi leaves.

      Hi
      Today just came across your page and decided to make Dahi Chicken. It was a simple recipe and it turned out really well. I only added little tomato puree & kaju pest to increase the volume.
      Thanks for the great recipe.
      Next would be your Afghan Chicken.
      😊

      I have a question. Why you used cumon powder again ? It should be coriander powder. Right ?

      Delicious recipe. I love methi so added a teaspoon extra. It was fab. I've saved this to my favourites and will definitely make it again.
