NILGIRIS CHICKEN KURMA
Growing up at the foothills of the Blue Mountains/Nilgiris in South India,I was so enchanted by the Badagas/tribals of the Blue Mountains.Their gentle nature,their cultural pride,their soulful dance for any occasion,their hospitality is all that comes to my mind when I decided to share a recipe from the Badaga kitchen which was taught to me by a dear Badaga Aunt.My hope is each one of you who tastes this is taken back to the endless Blue mountain ranges,in whose robes I found great solace in my childhood and every breath of that fresh Nilgiri air was life giving in itself.Enjoy,the essence of the Badaga culture as the aroma of this “kurma” spreads through your kitchen.
