Chicken curry defines comfort and we can't agree to it more. Juicy chicken chunks, dunked in spicy, aromatic gravy - chicken curry makes for a wholesome meal when paired with rice or roti by the side. But what fascinates us the most is its versatility. If you explore Indian cuisine in depth, you will find chicken curry having multiple versions across India. In fact every regional cuisine has its special chicken curry recipe that helps define the food culture of the state - for instance Bengal's chicken kosha and Champaran handi mutton from Bihar. Likewise, South Indian cuisine also has several chicken curry recipes that leave a strong impression on our palate and heart - one such being Mangalorean chicken curry.
