INGREDIENTS

150 gm skinless bone-in chicken

Whole Kashmiri chillies

Fresh ginger, peeled and diced

Cinnamon stick

Black peppercorns

Grind ingredients such as Kashmiri chillies, cloves, garlic, ginger, cinnamon, peppercorns, cumin, vinegar and water together in a high-speed blender to create a smooth paste.

In a saucepan, add onions with a little salt and saute until they are medium brown. Add the vindaloo paste and cook for about 5 minutes. Add marinated meat and also chopped tomatoes to the mix and continue stirring. 

Keep the flame on medium-high and pour in water to bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and then let it simmer for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and lastly, add salt to taste. Serve hot.
