A succulent and spicy dish

kodai koora varuval chicken

This dish is a fantastic fusion of the ancient Tamil cuisine & the charming Spanish cuisine. It is a very light & healthy preparation. This is a signature dish of Tamil Nadu where the chicken gets a splendid curry leaf flavour. In short, this is a chicken Varuval (Tamil word for ‘fry’) made in a different way & it tastes different too.
