- Remove the skin from the chicken if using thighs or leg which tastes better for this preparation. Trim the fat. Wash and drain.
- Heat a pan and add crushed cloves, cardamom and cinnamon and dry roast for a minute on medium heat. Add coarsely crushed corriander seeds and chillie and a pinch of turmeric powder stir well and roast for a minute. (if using powdered version make sure it doesnt burn) Add a tsp of fennel powder and roast for another minute.
- Add pepper powder and the drained chicken pieces and stir well so that it gets coated with the spices. Stir for 5 minutes and then close and cook till meat is well done on medium heat.
- Open pan and cook on low fire in the fat that is now found in the pan until the moisture evapourates stirring the pieces often.
- Serve hot with plain rice.
