Doi Murgi – Yogurt Chicken Curry from Bangladesh
Pane-Bistecca
Doi Murgi is a simple chicken curry that is prepared in every Bangladeshi household. The bone-in chicken is cooked in a thin yogurt-based curry. This curry is best served with steamed rice or roti. The sauce of this Bangladeshi chicken curry is mild in flavor and thin and soupy in consistency. Bangladeshi yogurt chicken curry is considered the best family dish there is. Slow-roasted, succulent chicken cooked with over ten different spices in a rich and creamy yogurt sauce. Chilis add extra heat and crispy onions round off the curry. The recipe is from Dina Begum!

Ich liebe die Aromen von Curry-Gerichten! Zwar riecht meist die ganze Wohnung nach den Gewürzen, aber dagegen hilft ja einmal ausgiebig Lüften.
Genau! Der Geruch ist himmlisch!
