Before my entry into TV9 Chef No.1 Reality Cookery contest, I was more into traditional Indian and south Asian cooking like Chinese, Thai and so... But when I decided take part in this prestigious Reality Contest, I along with my sister started exploring all the world cuisine, famous chefs across the globe, reading books, knowing about more culinary skills because the target was very high and winning Chef No.1 Title was not that easy. It was the first Master Chef show of Telugu states. I took it very seriously from the beginning. On my first audition, I have decided to present a different and new style of Chicken dish because chicken blends well any masala and tastes best. Then chosen to prepare a royal, traditional Srilankan style of chicken curry. It came out very well and our judge Chef Sudhakar N.Rao was very much impressed with my dish. I have got selected to enter into Chef No.1 kitchen. This is how my journey of Chef No.1 Title started with Srilankan Kings Mustard Chicken Curry.
Today I am sharing this winning recipe "Kings Mustard Chicken Curry", a unique, traditional, royal Srilankan style. This is a very famous recipe cooked in Royal families of Srilanka made using mustard powder. Srilakan cuisine generally includes using of fresh turmeric, fresh coconut extract and fresh pandan leaves. So, I have prepared a unique masala using fresh turmeric, mustard seeds and ground it in pestle mortar adding little water. Marinated chicken with mustard powder along with salt, red chilly powder and black pepper powder. First cooked this marinated chicken in oil, then cooked in water and finally cooked in fresh coconut extract. To bring a unique and beautiful aroma, Srilankans even add a small sandal wood stick while cooking this chicken. Because of non-availability I have not used pandan leaves and sandal wood stick. Mustard powder, fresh turmeric and coconut extract brings a unique flavour, spicy, authentic and some different taste to this delicious "Kings Mustard Chicken Curry". It tastes awesome when eaten with roti or rice.
