Deep fried chicken





Ingredients:
Chicken -Medium size farm chicken suits best for this fry, Coriander powder-4 tsp, cumin seeds-3 tsp, red chilli powder-4 tsp, turmerric-2 tsp, Salt to taste, ginger garlic paste- 4 tsp, lemon juice- 6 tsp, 1 l of oil to deep fry, srilankan curry powder-2 tsp(optional), deseeded tomatoes for garnishing
Method: Clean & wash the chicken thoroughly, combine all the ingredients together except deseeded tomatoes, using a fork poke holes all over surface of the chicken, apply the mixture all over the chicken, allow it to marinate for 1 hour, heat oil in large deep fry pan or in electronic deep fryer, put the oil in there & heat up , once oil got heat up place the chicken carefully in the pan,u can use a long handled spoon to avoid any burning, put a lid on it, turn the heat to law, fry for 35 minutes to 45 minutes under law heat, half way through the frying @ about 20 minutes turn the chicken upside down, now continue to fry until done, turn off the heat using long handled spoons  take the chicken out & drain the excess oil on kitchen tissue papers, garnish with the way you like it, serve it hot.  Honestly this is not a very good recipe for calorie conscious people. if you are really conscious about your calorie in take eat less quantity & work out at least 1/2 hour.

To make srilankan curry powder- Dry roast equal quantity of cumin seeds, funnel seeds(sump), coriander & curry leaves in a pan, do not burn it, now grind everything in a coffee grinder in to a fine powder.
