Instructions

Step 1

Start by soaking the chicken drumsticks in a bowl of water with ginger garlic paste, vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Let them sit for about an hour to soak up the flavors.

Step 2

While the chicken is resting, mix together yogurt, salt, coriander powder, crushed coriander seeds, cumin powder, chili flakes, and some ginger garlic paste in another bowl. Stir it well.

Step 3

Add some flour to the yogurt mixture and mix until it forms a thick batter.

Step 4

Coat the chicken drumsticks thoroughly with this marinade and let them sit for another hour to absorb all the spices.

Step 5

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat, then fry the chicken until it’s golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally.

Step 6

Once done, drain the chicken on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 7

Serve hot and enjoy your crispy, flavorful fried chicken!
