Murgh Musallam

Murgh musallam, a droolworthy and catchy chicken curry from Awadhi cuisine..The word Musallam means “whole” and Murgh means “chicken” is a rich creamy dish chicken dish which is quite famous from Awadhi Cuisine. The dish has derived its name through the process of cooking whole chicken in a creamy sauce and an interesting combination of spices that result in a rich succulent dish that is mildly spicy and tastes amazing when paired up with plain cooked basmati rice, pulao or as a side to go with rotis. I used chicken pieces instead of whole chicken but the taste was delicious.The colour of the dish itself says how delicious this chicken curry would have tasted na, yep we enjoyed having this delectable murgh musallam with rice for our sunday's lunch and with rotis for dinner...One more delicious chicken curry to try and this curry is quite different from our usual chicken gravies...Eventhough the cooking process and the ingredients lists seems very long, this murgh musallam tastes truly soooo delicious, its really worth to try this dish..
