Garhwali Style Chicken Curry

To escape from Delhi heat we planned weekend break to Lansdowne ,a small cleaned town in Uttrakhand .A place to enjoy the nature with delicious food 🙂  The traditional cuisine there are simple to prepare and at the same time appealing to the palate. After the morning delicious breakfast ,I asked the cook to prepare something traditional.It was friday and crowd was little less.As soon as he agreed ,i put another condition.Guess What?? I wanted to cook myself with his help .He agreed to that 🙂 !! It was quite enjoyable for me to cook on holiday and the result was toothsome. The very next day we went on 8 km trekking in the jungle to Dhora village and spent a good time with Garhwali people. That beautiful stone house and a blue door was my point of attraction.

Well i have prepared that dish again today at home and thought of sharing this recipe with you all.Hope you will enjoy it.
