HOW TO PREPARE
Finely chop the onion. Grind two green chillies to a paste and finely chop the rest. Now put the chicken in a big bowl and make slits in all the pieces on all sides. Now put the ginger garlic paste, green chilly paste and the turmeric and mix it up well and let it marinate for two hours at least. In a small frying pan pour a little oil and roast the grated coconut. Let it cool and then put it in a blender with half the onions and make a fine paste. Now take a pan and pour the oil and bring to heat. When the oil is very hot add the remaining chopped onions and sauté till golden brown. Put in the remaining green chillies, garam masala, red chilly powder and sauté till the raw smell of the spices leaves. Now add the marinated chicken and fry for three minutes or till the chicken is brown on all sides. Add the coconut paste and salt to taste. Mix well and add water according to the desired level of thickness. Let it boil, cover, simmer and cook for 25 minutes or till the chicken is nice and soft. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve.
