Easy Chicken Curry

Perfect lazy day curry,but tastes equally good!Whatever it is we always get bored in doing same things, isn’t it?Same in cooking too,for me more than having it cooking the same old curry is boring always.So whenever i feel like the menu is repeating will experiment something new and innovative.

Here The curry doesn’t require any chopping or cutting everything goes straight into the grinder and then we are cooking it.I remember my mom used to make a Kadai Chicken,this curry after making got that exact taste!hehe!Maybe that grinding part gives it the same taste.

I was damn lazy that day after cleaning and all.So i’m not really in a mood to cook especially cutting n chopping,so just find an easy way to cook the curry and wala!I didn’t meant to click while making the curry,but after tasting it,i want this to be on the blog and here is it.This will be an ultimate combo with Malabar Porotta.So what i did was called the hubby and asked him to get some porotta!😉hehee!
