Yellow chicken ( courtesy Akanksha)

 Yellow chicken recipe: 

Take some oil in a pressure cooker on medium heat (unfortunately more oil will make it yummier, so you decide how much you want to use), once it heats up a little add some zeera. Once it gets a shade darker, add some heeng and turmeric (a little more than you’d usually use in a haldi-mirchi sabzi). Stir it a few times and the drop in the chicken (I prefer to use whole cut chicken for this- breast pieces get a little chewy), stir it a few times so the chicken gets coated in the yellow turmeric color. Fry on medium heat for around 5-7 minutes. Add some thinly sliced onion ( 1/4th of an onion), some grated (or chopped if meghna doesn’t mind it) ginger, salt and some coriander powder. Cook for around 1-2 mins and then pressure cook it for as long as you generally like to pressure cook chicken. Stir some (around 3-4 tablespoons) store-bought yogurt till it becomes perfectly smooth and add it to the chicken on high heat (once the pressure cooking is done), stir continuously till it comes to a boil. Boil for 2-3 mins (or more if the chicken isn’t soft enough) . If meghna like it, you can even added some black pepper powder in the end.
