Goan chicken xacuti

 

Originating in the Indian state of Goa, this recipe is all bout Xacuti (pronounced Shakuti)β€”a spice blend of freshly grated coconut, poppy seeds and large dried red chilies that binds together lamb, fish or chicken.

 

This fragrant red gravy (fiery in appearance yet actually quite mild) is a widely accepted Portuguese rendition of a traditional dish from the western coast of India.

 

Here's a luscious chicken recipe that does justice to this tradition of Xacuti.

Chettinad chicken curry

This fiery and aromatic curry from the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu in South India is an absolute favorite among curry connoisseurs. The tradition calls for grinding a variety of sundried spices, coconut and chilies using a pestle and mortar. The spice blend is later used to lend flavor to the chicken pieces to make a gravy base. Here's a recipe that really hits the spot.
