Hello friends!
Today, I will be showing you how to cook a 'Murghi'. It is my only favorite dish here in Saudi Arabia where we buy from a Pakistani Restaurant, just a few blocks away from our house. Unfortunately, the restaurant shut down one day for some reason we don't know.
I told my husband to find out how it was cooked. I don't know some of the ingredients used in that dish because they put lots of spices in it, where I am not so familiar to. He maybe asked his friends here, so he bought the spices needed and experimented. Yes! He was able to cook Murghi that is very similar to what we bought outside.
Here are the ingredients we used:
* Half Chicken - cut into pieces
* 3 Tbsp Cooking Oil
* 1/2 pc Potato - cut into small pieces
* 1/2 pc. Knorr Chicken Cubes
* 1 cup Water
* 1 tbsp Plain Yogurt
* 1 tbsp Ginger and Onion Paste
* 1 tbsp Red Chili Powder
* 1 tbsp Mixed Chicken Seasoning
* 1 tbsp Powder Black Pepper
* 1 tbsp Powdered Coriander
* 1 piece Long Chili
* Fresh Parsley
* Fresh Coriander
Procedure:
1. In making a ginger and onion paste, you just need to use a blender.
2. Put the cooking oil in the pan and let it hot, then add the paste and stir.
3. Turn stove into low heat, then add the chicken slices and stir again until it turn into brownish in color.
4. Put the sliced potato and the Knorr chicken cubes. Stir. (The chicken cube will give the salty taste of the dish, so no need to put salt.
5. Add the water and simmer until it subsides and turned sticky.
6. Add the red chili powder, mixed chicken seasoning, powdered pepper, coriander powder and mix.
7. Turn the stove into high heat, then put the yogurt, long chili, fresh parsley and coriander. Mix them all together again for about 10 seconds. Turn the stove off.
Ready to be served!
That's all for now and have a great time!
