Chetinad Chicken Curry (Serves 4)
Ingredients
• 1 chicken, weighing 1kg, jointed into 8 pieces
• 1 tbsp of coriander seeds
• 1 tbsp of cumin seeds
• 1 tbsp of fennel seeds
• 1 tsp kalpasi, optional
• 1 tbsp of poppy seeds
• 1 tbsp of Kashmiri chilli powder
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 2 tbsp of coconut oil
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 4 cloves
• 1 tsp ground star anise
• 3 shallots, sliced
• 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 3 sprigs of curry leaves
• 4 tomatoes, puréed
• 5 1/16 fl oz of coconut milk

Method
1. Dry roast the coriander, fennel, cumin, kalpasi, and poppy seeds in a dry saucepan over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
2. Place the roasted spices in a spice grinder, add the chili and turmeric powder and grind to a fine powder. Set aside for the time being.
3. Heat the coconut oil in a thick-bottomed saucepan over a medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick, star anise, and the cloves. Sauté for 30 seconds.
