Naati Koli saaru / Chicken Curry

This is for you.......... ardent fans of chicken  :)

Dedicated to all Chicken Lovers .... :)

Wow! Naati koli saaru .. bisi bisi mudde.... what a combination :)
Its almost same as regular Chicken curry what i prepare with little here and there modifications.

This Naati koli is healthy than the broiler one they say...
Because in Broilers they are forced to grow rapidly to meet the need in market .. So they are injected with steroid kind of chemicals to make it more fleshy in short period of time! (These are all just heard news .. am not sure about it either :)

As usual weekend arrived and was confused whether Broiler or Naati..
Anyways i had heard lot about Naati .. its much tastier, healthier, keeps body warmer.. blah blah ... blah... 

So thought of trying Naati Koli Saaru..

Its less fleshy, a bit tougher than regular chicken, bones are very thin!!.. 
Anyways have decided to try that.. so started cooking ..

Here goes..
