  1. Deseed dried red chillies and put into a mixer jar. Add garlic, ginger, rice, 2 tbsps lemon juice, salt and grind. Add 10-12 curry leaves and continue to grind to a smooth paste.
  2. Put the paste into a large bowl, add chicken pieces and yogurt and mix well. Add remaining lemon juice and mix till the masala coats all the chicken pieces well.
  3. Chop remaining curry leaves and add to the chicken and mix and set aside to marinate for 2-3 hours. Heat oil in a non stick pan. Roll the chicken pieces in refined flour, shake off extra flour and place in the pan and cook on medium heat till the underside is lightly browned.
