Ingredients

8 whole chicken legs/each leg cut in half (clean, 3 light slits on each leg,wash & drain)
2 large onions (sliced thin)
Green chillies cut in half/whole, use as you prefer.
2 large tomatoes (cut in quarters)
Bayleaves 3
Oil- enough oil to shallow fry the chicken on both sides
Salt 1/4 Tsp-adjust if required
Oil, 3-4 Tbs extra if needed to fry the chicken in the same pan.
Fresh coriander 4-5 Tbs -finely chopped

To marinate the chicken:
Ginger grated 1 & 1/4 Tsp
Garlic grated 1 & 1/4 Tsp
Salt to taste, as a guide 1/3 Tsp -1/2 Tsp
Cumin powder 1 & 1/4 Tsp
Coriander powder 1 & 1/4 Tsp
Tumeric powder 1/3 Tsp
Garam masala 1/4 Tsp
Chilli powder 3/4 Tsp (adjust as required)
Coarse black pepper 1/3 Tsp (I use a normal teaspoon to measure all my spices & salt)

Method:

Prepare the chicken pieces as instructed.

Place the clean chicken pieces in a bowl.

Add all the ingredients, listed under marinating the chicken.

In a wide non stick pan, add the oil and put the gas up.

Once the oil is hot, put the gas down slightly and add the chicken pieces in.
Put the gas up after adding the chicken and fry on high heat for 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye and adjust heat if needed.

Slightly lower the gas and cook this until the bottom looks done, keep an eye. Adjust the heat if required during this cooking process at anytime.

Once the bottom looks done, repeat the same frying process for the other sides. You may fry the chicken in two batches if the pan is not big enough. If you do that, then remove the cooked pieces and place in a plate/tray before adding the uncooked batches to the pan.
