Kkg chicken (thigh pieces)
2-3 green chillies
10-12 sprigs of coriander
4-5 black peppercorns
2-3 cloves
2 tsp turmeric

3-4 ginger juliennes
3 tbsp refined cooking oil

Method
Make incisions in the chicken pieces and rub with half the turmeric and juice from a lemon wedge. Keep aside for 10 minutes.
In a blender, make a fine paste of green chillies, coriander, cinnamon, garlic, ginger, cumin, cloves, peppercorns and the remaining turmeric. Generously apply this paste to the chicken and keep aside for half an hour.
Heat the oil in a pan, add the chicken and cook evenly on both sides. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for approximately 20 minutes, or till the chicken is done.
Optionally serve with fried potato wedges, a dash of lemon juice and onion rings.
