This dish has so many different names - Chili chicken, ginger chicken...and so on. Essentially they are similar, and taste really good. I did not use any food coloring here. Looked just as good without it.
For the coating:
Chicken leg meat - 2 lbs (Cubed)
Corn flour - 2 tbsp
Egg - 1
Salt and pepper - to taste
Oil - to fry
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
For the Sauce:
Oil - 1 tbsp
Cumin - 1 tsp
Chopped Ginger - 1 tbsp
Chopped Garlic - 1 tbsp
Chopped green chili - 2
Curry leaves - 1 sprig
Chili garlic paste - 1 tbsp
Salt - to taste
Red chili powder - 1 tsp
Cumin powder - 1 tsp
Soy sauce - 1 tsp
Mix the chicken with the coating and deep fry. I discard the oil, so fry in as little oil as possible. Remove and set aside.
In a pan, add the oil. Cumin seeds, chopped ginger and garlic, green chili, curry leaves and fry till fragrant.
Add the chili garlic sauce, salt, cumin powder, red chili powder, soy sauce and 1/4 cup water.
Mix well and cook for a minute.
Add the chicken and mix well. Garnish with cilantro and serve hot.
