Cookd masalas for chicken boneless cubes
Method
Marinate the chicken with ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, lemon juice and ½ tsp of salt. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
In a pan, heat 2 tbsp of oil. Add the finely chopped onion and saute it for 1 minute.
Add the potato cubes and the marinated chicken. Add the garam masala and pepper powder and cook for 1 minute. Add ½ cup of water and cook, covered, until the potatoes have softened.
Remove the lid and cook on high heat until all the water has evaporated. It is important that this mixture should not have too much moisture. Let this mixture cool to room temperature.
Then grind it into a coarse paste in a mixer or food processor.
Shape this mixture into a log-shape, around 2 inches long.
Beat the egg in a bowl. Put the breadcrumbs onto a plate. Dip the shaped chicken croquettes in the egg, and then in the breadcrumbs. Set this on a separate plate.
Heat oil to deep fry, and fry them until golden brown.

I think it’s better to grind the chicken and mash the potatoes and mix them together …. other than that it came out well…
