Chicken kuzhambu recipe, Kodi pulusu, Kozhi kuzhambu

Chicken kuzhambu/Kozhi kuzhambu/ Kodi pulusu is a thick gravy prepared with chicken pieces and masala. This kuzhambu can be prepared with coconut or without coconut. So I made this Chicken kuzhambu with cashew paste, yes you heard it right! Cashew paste adds extra taste, perfect texture, thickness and richness to the kuzhambu. Yes I altered this  kuzhambu recipe during my pregnancy since i was hesitant to take any food cooked in regular version. I still remember the days when I use to pester my husband to buy chicken often so I can make this kuzhambu. Kozhi kuzhambu recipe below is one that kuzhambu I cherished eating throughout my 3rd trimester. You can serve this recipe with hot rice or with chappati/roti. So without much delay let’s get started.

Now add the chicken pieces along with all the the spice powder and salt including the ground dry powder prepared.
  5. After mixing it all add 1-2 cup water and cover the kadai with lid so that the chicken cooks soft and tender in medium to low flame ( I added the water with which I boiled the cashews). Give it a stir occasionally so it does not get burnt in the bottom. When the kuzhambu is almost done add the cashew paste and give it a stir and put of the flame after one boil. Serve it hot with rice or roti.
