Murg musallam

2 hr Hands-on time + 6 hr soaking or marinating first
HardDifficulty
5 stepsSteps

Method

  1. 1 Make deep incisions in the chicken breast and thighs, then marinate with yogurt, ginger, and Kashmiri chili powder for 6 hours.
  2. 2 Stuff two hard-boiled eggs into the cavity of the chicken and tie it tightly with string.
  3. 3 Sauté onions until browned, then blend them with soaked cashews to make a thick sauce.
  4. 4 Sear the chicken in ghee for 12 minutes until golden brown on all sides; this step is crucial to prevent the skin from becoming soggy when braised.
  5. 5 Pour in the sauce and 250 ml of water, cover and simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes, then drizzle with saffron-infused milk during the last 10 minutes.
