Equipment

  • Cooking pot
  • Frying Pan

Ingredients
  

For Tempering

  • 4 tablespoon Oil
  • 4 no Cloves
  • 4 no Cardamom
  • 1 Stick Cinnamon
  • 1 no Star Anise

For Chicken

  • ½ kg Chicken (Bone in)
  • 1 no Lemon Grass Bruised
  • 1 cup Coconut milk
  • ½ cup Water
  • 2 no Kaffir Lime Leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • Salt to taste

For Spice Paste

  • 10 Kashmiri Red chillies soaked in hot water
  • 8 Shallots
  • 6 cloves Garlic
  • 1 inch Ginger
  • 1 inch Galangal
  • 1 no Lemongrass (inner white part alone)

For Kerisik

  • ½ cup Fresh Coconut grated

Instructions
 

  • Lets make kerisik. I used fresh coconut so I ground it in a blender till fine, don't add water. Take the ground coconut in a frying pan and roast on low till golden brown. Set aside till needed.
  • Soak Dry Red Chillies in Hot Water for 10 mins. In a Blender Jar, take all the ingredients given for spice paste and make it into a fine paste.
  • Heat oil in a wok or any pan and add in the whole spices and let them sizzle. Now add in spice paste and cook till oil separates from it. It will take around 3 to 4 mins.
  • Add in chicken pieces along with salt and mix well in the spice paste. Stir fry the chicken for 2 mins.
  • Add in crushed lemon grass, coconut milk and water. Mix well. Cover and cook on low heat for 20 mins till chicken is almost cooked.
  • When the chicken is cooked, add in the kaffir lime leaves, roasted coconut and sugar. Mix well. Cover and cook on low heat for another 10 mins till chicken is completely cooked and the gravy thickens.
  • Serve hot with rice or any bread.
