Ingredients:

• Chicken/mutton (mutton tastes better for this recipe)

• Vinegar

• Mustard oil

• Ginger-garlic paste

• Chilli powder

• Onions (chopped)

• Green chillies (chopped)

Method:

• Cut the meat into small pieces.

• Marinate it in equal amount of mustard oil and vinegar. (Make sure that the meat is completely submerged in the oil-vinegar mixture during marination)

• For 6 people’s servings, add about half a bowl of ginger garlic paste (you may vary it as per your taste).

• Put equal amount of salt and sugar per your taste

• Add lots of chilli powder to make it spicy.

• Marinate for about 3 hours for best results, though I have never kept it for more than 2 hours.

• Fry onions in mustard oil (this is optional as it would taste equally good without onions)

• Add chopped green chillies

• Then pour the marinated meat in the pan and fry

• Once the oil is separated out from the meat and the dish takes a deep brownish red colour, you know its cooked

Note: water is not used anytime during marination or cooking.. its simply mustard oil and vinegar..
