Roasted Spicy Chicken Fry


This is our most favorite chicken dish which we all like to have at any time, given a choice. There are many different varieties of dishes which can be made using chicken. we can experiment a lot of different styles. One such experiment is the outcome of this dish.


Usually, I would make some curry or semi gravy or fried, this time also I was sauteeing the onion and tomato mixture, the idea of grinding, marinating and slow roasting the chicken popped up and gave it a try. I think many of you might know this variety of fried chicken but I am trying for the first time.
A classic roasted chicken makes a delicious and healthy side that never goes out of style. The mildly spiced chicken is power packed with flavors. This dish can be made within less time. Hope you will like this. Just give it a try and let me know...

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
