Very simple,tasty and spicy Andhra hotel style chicken leg fry recipe.
I have given the instructions for making masala powder in the video version.but you can replace that masala powder with 1 tsp of ready to use garam masala powder and 2 tsp of coriander powder. overnight soaking for the better outcome.the chicken leg pieces will absorb all the flavors and spices when soaked overnight.if you have no time you can just soak in the marinade for 3-4 hours before cooking.
I have used only one medium sized onion.but you can add one more to get a little more gravy and the amount of oil,spices ,salt required increases accordingly.try and enjoy….. 🙂
