Instructions: To begin making Gongura Chicken Curry Recipe first prep all the ingredients and keep them aside.In a small pan, dry roast the methi seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds and red chillies for about 3 to 4 minutes on medium heat, until you notice the seeds crackling. Once done, turn off the heat and allow it to cool a bit and blend it into a smooth powder.Heat oil in a pressure cooker over medium heat; add the chopped onions, ginger, garlic and green chillies and saute until the onions are lightly browned and tender.Add the tomatoes, and saute until the tomatoes become soft and mushy. Once done add the chicken, the garam masala and turmeric powder. Add 1/4 cup of water and pressure cook the chicken for 3 to 4 whistles and turn off the heat.Once done, allow the pressure to release naturally.Make sure there are no stems when you pick the gongura leaves.
