Super spicy and fragrant chicken curry made kongu style with fresh spice powder and potato. This is not only easy to make but taste amazing.
This is a spicy chicken dish that tastes fantastic. It is spicy and delicious. This tastes amazing even with some pulao, biryani as well. You can even serve it with some roti or paratha too. But I enjoy it thoroughly with some rasam rice.
