How to Make Homemade White Gravy Chicken

Popular Indian Food Recipe Series

This is one of my favorite chicken preparations. This preparation is not a common Indian chicken dish. I came to know about this from one of my relative long back. I added few my own tips and tricks with that old recipe and came up with this delicious one. Later I had several chances when I served this dish to my friends and relatives and received a huge appreciation from them. I am sure you will love it. Just try it at your home. It is far better and healthier than any other usual chicken preparation we eat.

Here we will be using mainly white Indian Poppy seed. This is not a hot spice as almost all Indian spices are, but it has little extra fat (oil) in it. Sometimes if someone suffering from stomach problem people are advised to take grounded and fried poppy seed, which helps them to cure the stomach malfunction. Poppy seed is good for health. If someone is too worried about fat intake and advised not to take any kind of fat enriched food, then he/she should avoid this Indian dish. This white poppy seed is available in any Indian store at US.
